Hi guys,

Trying to track down one center cap for a 450 Seac on a F plate. The wheels are identical to that of a griff but the centers are slightly different in that the piece that says TVR can be removed.

Attached is a picture of the one I want, notice there are twi rows of hoels as opposed to the griffith center which has one.

This is the center im after there is a code on the back M-143:



This is the same wheel as mine but notice the center is different.

I know for for one! Sadly it's somewhere on the hard shoulder of the M4 near the Usk turn off and it belongs on my SEAC cry If you manage to find a pair let me know and I'll share the cost thumbup

PS. Waynester - SEACs had lattice and 5 spoke as "standard" wink

Yup i knew they had both, i remember Stainless's 450. They were 16's x 8 weren't they?
I love the 5 spokes but the lattice's look the biz too. yes

Right then,there are two types of centres like you say,i have seen both types on the Griffs so don't discount them.
I was looking for one a few years ago,found one in the end,at the time a company was just setting up making wheels for an MG with the same pattern wheel centre.Will have a dig around to see if i can find the company name for you.

Well given up in the search, managed to find 4 of the ones in the second photo, so he will be using these untill (or if!) one of the others turn up!
