For anyone interested it is Fuse 23 if you look up the diagram, and it is a 25 amp fuse. Should have checked the obvious first but it slipped ...

Re: I've just bought some new wheels for my Rover 216.

or does it not apply because the wheels are not for this car originally.. 100% correct. The Cosmos wheels were fitted as standard to some versions of the Rover 45, so having looked at Rimmer's page for the 400/45 range I would suggest that these are the nuts to go for: https://rimmerbros.com/Item--...

Re: I've just bought some new wheels for my Rover 216.

May I ask from which car these alloys are taken? Asking because of MG centre caps. The guy I bought them from said he had them on a MG ZR . The centre caps say MG but I think they can be replaced. The rims themselves were originally Rover as that is on the back of them. https://i.postimg.cc/rpsByxW...
