If some one has a pic or two of the inside of a cap that has been modded so I can get my caps modded thank for trying to help Keith. Try to get my caps on before Ottawa and Springfield at the end of September

If it's the same caps I used you don't modify the caps. You drill and tap the rims to bolt in the clips. Then press the cap onto the clips. Post 10 shows them on my truck and post 24 shows a close up of the rims with the clips installed
