Think I have some mate, will have a look in the garage over the weekend. They are the same as the hairpin centres iirc, if that makes it easier to get hold of some as im sure that's what I used on my old one.

That's strange as the ones I used were definitely the hairpin ones as they had the rover badges from the sport wheels. Went straight in my mk2 rims without issue at all.
Either way I know I have some of the original ones in the garage somewhere as I didn't want to cover them with my custom centres so used the rover ones to save the Mg caps.
Will let you know if I find them mate.

Legend thanks Craig, been told on the old facebook that there is a small lug on them that if it isnt in the right place then it wont fit straight so will give it a go early tomorrow morning :)

No worries, hopefully won't be too hidden in the depths lol.
Hopefully it'll help you out.

Yeah there is a little dimple/lug that locates into the central hub area of the wheel which has a minor shaped some that the dimple/lug fits into.

No worries. Think I did the same the first time round and actually bent one of the dimples on a cap.
One if those things I guess. Surprised someone managed to get one out that easily then as they can be a pain to remove without the wheel being off.

I have lost one myself before but they can get loose over time so possible it fell out. :)

I remember it being there when I went in because I have a habit of always looking back and thinking..."I love that car"

:thumbsup::thumbsup: cheers buddy, didn't have to do that.
Fingers crossed no damage to the wheel then, hopefully be just the missing cap.

One of the caps vanished from the ZR, again I'm sure it was on there when the car was parked up.
