Picked up a M12 GTO 3 last week but one of the wheel nut covers is missing, any idea where to get one from? Also what should the boost be reading on the guage? I think its going to about 0.6 at the mo. Last question, the black button on the dash, any ideas what it does? the guy I pisked it up from had no idea either, when pressed you can hear something click like a solenoid coming from the engine area.

Cheers,

Olly

Wheel cover is a dealer item if you are looking for a new one, but someone here might have one spare...

The boost sounds right...

I'm suprised you can hear a click when you use the black button...as far as I know it is redundant. It was origialy going to be used for a turbo on/off (or different boost settings) but Lee Noble went off the idea.

TSW do not do the wheel nut or the covers any more. they have a bin of 2nds (as they just sent me a set of black nuts FOC ).

Factory maybe your only bet

I know mine is a 2.5 but the single black switch I have is the rear fogs.
