Default New Wheel Covers

Hey guys.

Sometime this winter I lost one of my stock wheel covers. I was looking online for a replacement, but the only one I could find was $35 plus shipping. My question is, would a generic cover fit on my 92' Bonneville SE'* wheel? The stock covers attach by a plastic caps that screw over the lug nuts, but most of the generic'* I've seen have the clips that just snap in.

Thanks for your help.

Ebay always has some cheap crap. Check Walmart also, they got regular hubcaps that can go on your car, all being it is the same size.

Yeah, you could always get wheel covers.. Maybe some chrome ones from Pepboys even. I don't think that 16" crosslace upgrade is a bad idea either

To answer the qustion a bit more literally, yes the clip on covers will replace the ones you have/had. I had to do this on a Corsica I had. Fit like a charm....
