    Default WTB: Wheel emblems - 88/89

    Does anyone know where I can find a set of 4 emblems that go into the insert for the center cap on 88/89 wheels? Photo enclosed. It's GM Part Number 10055342, but seems to be discontinued.

    I've seen them several times on e-Bay but haven't logged on there in a while. You might start there.

    Happy hunting!

    Hey Black,

    I'm looking for some too.

    Ecklers did sell them but they've discontinued them. I saw some on Ebay about a month ago. I had contacted the seller with some questions, to which they responded, but I cannot find them on Ebay again. I will do a more detailed search through my old email and, if I find them, I will let you know.

    Mine were so bad I ended up spraying them silver. Not great, but better.

    If you find some will you let me know? I would appreciate it.

    Triple B...

    Found a set on Ebay Item number: 350220674630...They're GOLD so not my cup of tea.
    Seller asking $60 for the set...Says they're new...They look nice.

    Good Luck

    I'd prefer original, but I will have a look on E-bay for the gold and see them - and any others.

    Edit: Thanks, Wilton. I went ahead and bought those. If I don't like the gold, and can't find 4 originals, I can always paint them black!

    Those look like wheel emblems - there should be 4 ( 1 per wheel ) but they seem like the right ones. They might have the part number 10055342 on the backside or on the parts bag. I thought these emblems were only used on '88 and '89 rims, so I'm not sure why you'd have a set for your '85 - but they may have had different applications.

    If you're not going to use them... really I need 4, but 3 is a good start... I'd be interested.
