242GT wheel center caps? Something else compatible? 200 1979

Man, I haven't posted in the 2xx forum in ages! I've been restoring my '79 242GT for the past four years or so, thus I haven't had reasons. I'm currently in the finishing stages of having it back on the road . . .

Which brings me to my question. I have 2 center caps to the original GT wheels. One is decent, the other is poor. The opening in the wheels is smaller than most all other Volvo wheels that I have or that seem to be available. Most have a 60mm opening, while the GT wheels have about a 58mm opening. Any guesses as to something from another brand that would fit and I could paint it? A source for the originals? Someone has a few in their garage? I'm currently at a loss.

Once the car is done, I'll post pictures!

Thanks,

Nate
