This might sound crazy but try looking at a set off a 1967 Corvette. They are a one year only ring for the Corvette but they are as close as I have ever seen to the Mopar set. They came in 14" and 15". The 15" are very $$$. Yes, I bought a set off ebay (14") and they are very close. Take a look on Ebay for an original set - not a repro set. They also mount the same way with the four retaining clips on the outer lip of the wheel. Rob Here is a set on Ebay right now: http://cgi.ebay.com/ebaymotors/1967-CORV...=item1c0def9796And another: http://cgi.ebay.com/ebaymotors/SURVIVOR-...=item2303d474c3

OK, after doing a little searching on Google, I found what I bought. They are the 1967 Camaro trim rings and they are exactly what is in the link below. They also attach by the outer rim edge. Check them out. They look very close in person to the Mopar style. Rob http://www.rickscamaros.com/product.asp?dept_id=3563&pf_id=TR-6**OK after looking at them again in the above link, they don't attach at the outer lip, but they look very close on the outside. What the heck did I buy then?? I wonder if a GM guy was selling a set of Mopar trim rings and didn't realize it and listed them as Gm? I'll have to dig them out and take a photo. One thing is for sure, they do not look like the more common GM trim rings. Also, the guy did say in his ebay ad that they were 1967 GM first style trim rings before the design to the more common rings that look nothing like a Mopar. ***Ok, this is the exact trim ring I bought a set of: http://www.dantiques2.com/vpasp/shopexd.asp?ccode=46395They are listed as GM 14"??
