I am a proud new owner of a 1978 Thunderbird Base Hardtop Coupe. It is missing one hubcap and I am going to order a used one. How do I install and/or remove the hubcaps?

If it's a "wire wheel" hubcap like my '78 had, it's a locking hubcap, remove center plastic piece and you'll see the head of a bolt, I don't remember if it was a special head that took a certain key-way that came with the car or it was just an simple allen head bolt...........

Thank you. I will update here with pictures after I try to remove the hubcaps this weekend.
