*I know this isn't a meet thread but I need information and these are the best guys to ask so please do not move this thread - thank you :) *

Dearest Australians,

Could you tell me if you ever had any of the following models/cars released over there?

Corsa C Exclusiv
Tigra Twin top

Basically I'm looking for some Holden centra caps to fit my Corsa D SXi alloys but I know the D was never released over there which is proving tricky. I know the same centre caps were used on the wheels of the cars above (possibly more)

Here's a pic of the caps in question (please note they're different on 4 and 5 stud alloys, I need 4's :))

If anyone actually has any that'd be great, please PM me.

Any help would be appreciated.

Many thanks

Mike :cheers:

The next question would then be, where can I get some?? Does anyone have some that they'd like to swap fro Vauxhall Griffin centre caps??

Have tried eBay.au a few times, no joy.

VX dealers over here can only get European stuff in through trade :(

ahh i see. Still, if that guy managed to get Holden centre caps, then surely it must be possible even if it is a case of watching ebay down under like a hawk.

It's mainly because they never released the D down under otherwise I'm sure there'd be a lot more.

mate, do you know what size badges they are on these centre caps cus i'm after some opel ones...

the badges look like they can be swapped rather than buying a full centre cap if you look behind em aswell.

You can get opel ones from Vauxhall for about £76 in total, you might be lucky to get some off the bay as well. I don't know what size they are though.

I'd rather have the whole caps replaced as mine have peeled round the edge for some reason :(
