I don't start out that way, but I usually end up that way.  Allegedly you
can put a screw in through the little hole and drive them off, but all that
does for me is make the little hole into a big hole.

On my VWs, those caps would last a hundred years, but Triumphs
are...different.

I always keep new caps in stock now.
