Your suppose to get the key and at the end of the key you stick it to the hubcap and try pushing force to it and then try pulling it back and try your hardest to get a good grip on the hubcap too, after you think you have a good grip on it try to pull back not slowly but then not that fast either and then if it doesnt budge then keep trying the same technic over and over until you remove the hubcap!!(:

To remove a Renault Clio hubcap, first ensure the vehicle is parked on a flat surface and the wheel is secure. Use a flathead screwdriver or a similar tool to gently pry off the hubcap by inserting it into the gap between the hubcap and the wheel rim. Carefully work your way around the hubcap until it pops off. If the hubcap is stubborn, be cautious to avoid damaging it or the wheel.

Locksmiths have a tool that is basically a hooked piece of thin wire. I had a broken key in the lock that i had to remove so i used a very thin piece of wire and made a small 90 degree bend in it. The idea is to slide the wire (hooked end) along the key and get to the end of the key and get the bent end of the wire hooking the tip of the key. Then simply pull the broken end of the key out. In effect you are using a small,long fishhook to get the key out. Use a pair of pliars to bend the wire. Remember that the wire has to be thin and fairly strong. Coat hanger and bailing wire is much too thick. While breaking the lock, if the lock was damaged then you may have to replace the lock. The key may be jammed in too tightly.
A hubcap key is helpful in the removal of the New VW Beetle, a pair of Allen wrenches may be substituted in a pinch. Loosen the lug nuts prior to jacking up. Remove the nuts once jacked up, and pull up.
