| They usually hold on pretty good, unless you have a couple broken tabs or something. I didn't know they made aftermarket ones? I bet you could find an Olds cap that'd fit in there...  _________________ Bill "The Verb" Crovo - Resident Car Slut & Unicorn Hunter  A Toasted Marshmallow, A Long German, A Lame Suburban and expensive dreams...

| Wrap around the tabs with electrical tape.
The extra thickness makes them much tighter & the tape gives them more grab _________________ Steve 96BBB 28K 3.42 Bolt-ons 95BBB 100K 3.73 383 New DD...already broke fixt the 4L60E twice 95 Black WB4 Hole...ee...grail 96 Black WB4 No holes in this 95BBB 189K 3.08 Old DD Stolen...by Matt.

| Hey, be careful with that site, I opened it and Firefox blocked it because of a security hazard. It apparently steals personal data. | |

Justin, my Firefox doesn't block that site. I have bought from them 3 times, great product, quick service and priced fairly. I use those emblems on the caps on my 9C1 wheels, both wagons. I would not hesitate to buy again. Tom C. | |

Tom C. Hmm weird. Thanks for the heads up. On that note, are these the ones that are in the center of N97 caps? I have a couple faded ones that I wanna replace. http://www.makingitdigital.net/store1/agora.cgi?cart_id=6946417.2447*rS6az2&p_id=4327&xm=on&ppinc=search2 | |

| You could also find a set of the bowtie caps from a FWD Impala/Monte Carlo/Malibu in a salvage yard if you wanted, so you have four matching ones, likely at a fraction of the cost of just one SS cap. | |
