   might have found an ice grey cap that someone has that may swap with my citroen sport cap. Can anyone tell me if the lock barrell is interchangable, as I cant see how it will come apart?
   My current Citroen sport one uses the same key as the rest of the car, so wouldn't want to lose that.

   ive said this quite alot in the last couple of weeks.
   
   put the key in the lock, detach it from the car, push down firmly on the key whilst pulling the cap towards you, this should detach the cap from the lock.
