Where can I get one of these?

One of my center caps fell off and I want to replace it. I don't want to have to buy a new set, or even more than one if I can help it. The only set I've found is on eBay (where the picture came from), but the price is already higher than I want to pay since I just need one. If anybody has one they can give up I surely would appreciate it!!

Do you remember how much they were for each? I actually didn't think I could get them from the dealer so I didn't even bother to check. I guess I'll do that.

Lemme give my posts a chance to work their magic. If nobody has the matching cap I'll shoot you a message and we may do business.

Just for my information, are those black with the silver bird on them?

The formula centercaps are about $20 or so for the cap and $7 for the emblem. When you go to install the emblems just make sure you use an adhesive that wont damage the painted surface of the emblems. A 15-minute epoxy worked for me. Shortly after I bought two new caps I found a guy local that deals in used hubcaps, and he had a used set. They cost me about $5 each. I'd suggest checking salvage yards, and then the dealers.
