TVR logo "hub caps"
Discussion
Me too. My front hubcaps lasted about three months. I think the upgraded front brakes are creating too much heat. I found one hubcap on my driveway but couldn't refit it because the plastic clips had melted.
Edited to add. I did manage to get a new set out of TVR factory stores.

I got ours for the OZ's from auto-motif. Not sure if they are still on the web though.
They were the black domed affair with TVR logo (around 65mm diamater). I specced gold TVR logo but you can pretty much have any logo or background colour - from memory the 4 were less than £20 - bargain. Failing that get in touch with jonh on here.

What a timely post. I need some centres for my new OZ's. It does indeed look like the auto-motif website has expired, but who is the John you are refering to FFG?
Matt,
Sorry about the delay - I have been off poorly sick and then on holiday.
jonh is jonathon hughes - he is jonh on here or certainly was - and is a graphic design chappy. He had pink background on his Griff (yes, the car was pink and he's got a Cerb now).
Good luck with the OZ bolts - you've got no fooking chance - as I found out. Got some made by brazing a stainless bar section with a hole in it onto a bolt (looks better too).

I presume your talking about the little bolts on the griff wheels? Leven used to do a set of stainless steel ones. I think they still do them.
I think the ones you mean ads are for the 7 spoke estorils, not the earlier OZ split rims...unless you want to make me extremely happy by telling me otherwise of course....

Do you happen to know what size the bolt is FFG?
A bit of digging around the RS Components site has turned up these...

but how do I know which size to order? I have two original bolts, but how do I measure them? Is it just the diameter, or do I have to do some funky measurement of the thread? Anyone?
