Installing SS center Caps

Can someone tell me how to install new center caps. Just got my 2002 SS and want to put the SS center caps instead of the stock bow tie. I thought I had read somewhere that I need to take off each wheel and install from the back. Is this correct? Any thing special about changing out the caps?
Thanks for the help
James

Yup Yup, Rich is correct. The Lug Nuts hold on the Center Caps, remove them and put the new Center Cap in, and re-install the Lug Nuts.

This all depends on what type of wheels you have. I have the ZR1 wheels and the lugs don't hold the center cap on. I can take mine off without removing the lugs. They just pop off with a little bit of prying with a rubber tipped screwdriver.
