I just got a set and the stick on P-crests a month or so ago from...uh...AA. (IMG:style_emoticons/default/unsure.gif)
They fit, with a little convincing (IMG:style_emoticons/default/smash.gif) Had to really bend the little tabs to get em on. My Riv's are a used set that are not matched. Some caps went right on, others needed more. Actually broke a tab or two but they stay on. I also have not heard or old or new style Riv's. I had the same experience with the last set as well as Empi 8 spoke's. |

Guys - i went through this same drill not long ago....You need to measure the diameter of the center of wheel. The original (older) Riviera has a 3 and 1/4 center cap needed. The reproduction (new) Riviera uses the same cap as eight spoke EMPI. I found mine on e-bay, search Auto/Porsche/Parts. If you can't locate, e-mail me and I can dig-up the reciept.
