Does any one have a picture or the real thing of what the revised center wheel cap design looks like as it compares to the original one that was popping off the 2009 Vibes? Just like to know. I still have my original caps plus one replacement. They are held in place with a ring of Velcro tape. Still in place for almost a year. Thanks

I went to the dealership and got the updated center caps for free (under warranty). I don't have any pics, but they are made from a different material. The original designs were made with a ABS type gray plastic that seemed a bit too flexible. The updated design is made from what looks like nylon type plastic. The new plastic material is black in color compared to the gray. When you put the new caps on the car, you can definitely feel that the tension on the new design is a lot higher. The caps click on with a lot more authority.

ThanksThey look exactly the same as the old ones, but the material is a litttle different and they fit more tightly. I also got three replaced under warranty. They would not replace the 4th for "free" until it actually popped off.

pretty sweet

Great news. We lost 3 in the first week of ownership.

Thanks for your information about the revised wheel cap.
