W126 15" LARGER Center Cap (covers lugnuts)
Have a WTB on Classifieds for 1 Chromed Center Cap, significantly larger than the standard centers with MB Star, alloy or chromed, it actually covers all the 5 lug nut holes, has a raised circle (maybe originally in gold, who knows?) and has the MB Star in the center. This screws into a metal plug that fits on the back of the wheel. Used to see a lot of W126's with these "hubcaps" on aftermarket chromed alloy wheels.
I can remember seeing them sold as sets of 4 in the Performance Parts MB catalog years back, but nothing since. Maybe even in ADSITCO's catalog as well. Help, please as to who made these and I'd love to buy one if anyone has one on an old wheel. Mine are not perfect but one missing is a whole lot more obvious than some older chrome, scratches, etc. These ARE NOT the ones with a single screw/fastener visable off the center as in some aftermarket wheels. This unit basically just screws into the plug that replaces the normal center cap. My passenger-side rear one must have unscrewed or maybe just corroded and was lost: metal plug is still there. Thanks for your consideration!

That's them! Unfortunately...
DieselPaul: Thanks so much for your efforts!
Those were exactly what I'm looking for, unfortunately they SOLD via auction about 10 minutes after I read your response! 10 MINUTES! I had no idea these were 560SL related (although I've seen plenty of 560SL's with chromed wheels) nor that they might have actually been a factory part? The 6 1/2" description is accurate and I should have included that in my WTB on the Classifieds, and will do so immediately. Probably should include the link to the eBay auction as well. Thanks, again! p.s. BTW: When I 1st saw the eBay # I thought, great! I then realized I could neither bid nor buy since I don't have an eBay nor a PayPal account. I couldn't even send the seller a message, either. Some things are just not meant to happen, I guess?

They aren't factory, they are an aftermarket accessory.
