Center Wheel Caps

I was at the dealership the other day and asked at the parts counter about center wheel caps since mine look bad from 6 winters worth of salt. The price was not bad, but I thought I could do better online than the $76 i was quoted. The problem is knowing which ones are genuine or would look and hold up like OEM ones. can someone help me out as I'm not sure how to tell the good from the bad.

Hi, Last week I received a set of 4 from eBay uk. They were £8.99 and I was very suspicious that I would only receive 1 for that price. I was delighted to find that all 4 that they sent appeared to be genuine MB. I compared them with one from my wife’s 2016 B Class and they were exactly the same, complete with MB part numbers and excellent quality. I would look for an item that shows the rear with the MB logo and part number on.

Hope this is useful.

I suspect these are all made in China, whether or not they come in an MBZ bag Like everything else on our cars, they're lightweight plastic and probably won't hold up like the metal caps of yesteryear.

Tom, I compared them with my original ones and they were identical, including the moulding and part numbers. At that price I suspected that they may be copies but MB also may be buying them in. They look top notch to me.

You could also try AliExpress. eBay is not great for my region (India). Most sellers don’t ship it here.
