Wheel centre badges

[Podie]

Anyone know where I can get some...?

Are they standard jobbies that are still availble from TVR (part no anyone?)? - or do I take the knackered ones I have to that nice bloke at Leven?

there was a post on this recently. Have you tried a search? I had a feeling someone said that Carole at the office had some or Penninsula and they were about £4 each. Alternatively, I may have made that all up and be completely barmy

I posted one recently asking how to get them out...!

Found the thread... www.pistonheads.com/gassing/topic.asp?t=10786&f=11&h=0&hw=wheel+centre+badges

No part number though!

not that its particularly relevant - but if anyone is getting new tyres fitted in the near future, remove the caps before you take the car to the tyre dealer and replace them when you get home. The place I went to fd up both one of the caps and the alloy around the cap on EVERY wheel. tossers.

Hence the reaosn I need some new caps... they insisted on smaking them (from the inside of the wheel outwards) when they go the other way...

... this was eventually worked out (I asked on here), but by then, they had already smashed the bloody things out. Thankfully no damage to the alloys, but they will be getting presented with the bill for 4 new caps.

Which ones are they, Podie? I have a load of various odd TVR Wheel caps & centres, so I might just have what you need.

Little round ones that have TVR written in silver / white on a purple background... to fit the OZ 8 spoke wheels as found on the S series...

Don't seem to have any of that type. I have four that have the silver TVR logo on a black background, are slightly convex, about 47mm diameter. I can email you a pic of them if you like. Let me know...

Might be the same type / size...! Pic would be great... [e-mail] ... worth noting that mine only look purple when you hold them up to the light... at wheel level, they look black!
