I'm looking to replace the tired/cracked caps on my refurbished Virgos - are there any late model caps that will fit the Turbo wheel? If not, are the oem Virgo caps still available new (have tried e-bay and end up with caps in about the same condition as those on my car that won't fit snugly and end up popping off)? Thanks!!

    All - As it turns out, the 850 alloy center cap has changed to part #3546923. Boston Volvo (bostonvolvo.com) is offering the caps for $11.96/wheel at the 20% off garage sale price (regularly 15% off to out of staters). I hope they fit (and according to Rob they will fit nicely), but they won't guarantee that they will (however, if they don't, I'll just send them back).

    Should get them later this week and will post a pic of them on my 245 if I can figure out how to do it (still a newbie to the Board).

          Ouch....What kind of car? I guess everything is relative....when my 82 242 turbo gets restored I will splurge for new caps at $6, but for now as a daily driver, no way.

    Yes, there is a nice black 850 cap, the sort of fat one, not the flat one. I have the part number at home.

      That's great news, thanks! Please post the part # when you have an opportunity. I assume they're not that difficult to find for a reasonable price?
