Default Quesion about Center Caps.

Well I just noticed I either lost one or someone decided to borrow one, but I need one. Ive noticed other threads abotu people buying the mina ones, etc. But I really only needed 1 original. I noticed on Ebay there are the green growler center caps for S-types for only a few bucks. Is the Cap for the normal Stype the same as the ones for the STR? Same diameter etc?

Second Question. Anyone got one theyd be willing to part with? :P

All the same. I just gave four of my old ones to a fellow member. There are plenty of different growlers available maybe time for a change?

The clips on the center caps are made of cheap plastic. After a few years of heat and bumpy roads, the clips fail and the center cap falls out.

I lost all four on my 2008 XK. Good news is that the dealer replaced them under warranty....

They are actually the same for the line around the same years... IE 2006 XJ center cap fits a 2003 S Type wheel...

They really aren't that much money from the dealer... I would give Nalley a call....
