Bugger. Thats not good news.
If they cant be bought, i would imagine a cap from something else would fit. Anybody tried any other make?

Found them, sent him a pic, it's what he wants so it's off in the post today.

I lost one on a trackday about 3-4 years ago and had to chase everywhere for them. Got a set off one of the breakers in the end, I think they cost me about £30 the set. I got some better stickers made by a guy on ebay for the centre of mine.

So - I've got a couple more but kinda want to hang onto them as spares. I've found you have to make sure they are tight by the tabs by gently bending the rim outwards. I take mine off for trackdays now.

Not on a Cerbera but my Griff, I put a few small blobs of mastic on the inside of mine.
