Strut Top Nut Cover
Just wondering if anyone has, or knows where to get, one of the little black plastic covers from the strut top nut, I've had one missing for ages.

Re: Strut Top Nut Cover
I may just use standard nut covers such as the link below as they are cheap enough -

Re: Strut Top Nut Cover
Have you sourced some original replacements or chosen to use an alternative?

Hi Andrew, I got an original sized Capri nut cover from John Capri Man, as mentioned on your original thread, (great guy, very helpful), and also bought some of the original Cortina/Escort wheel nut ones, as the strut nuts can be two sizes so I have covered both eventualities. Hopefully, no matter what I'll always be able to have them covered now.
