Hello

Thank you for your comments....(Karen) Please advise if these Limpets where purchased from ourselves as we would be very happy to supply you with replacement Limpets.

You can email me on steve@homesteadcaravans.co.uk or call on 01255 830229.

(Sarah) If you could advise if the wheel cover was purchased from ourselves? we would be happy to take this back if you have the full packaging and I can refund you, as we totally understand that this product will not suit if surfaces are not flat.

I hope this is helpful
