Chrysler Dealer says they're discontinued and they are very scarce. After weeks of searching, the only place I found two (to avoid repeating this) is Canada and I might have to get them (if they in fact still have them) since the ebay guy that sells them gives very poor customer service.
Never buy a part for the Crossfire using the Chrysler part number. It will have a Mercedes number, much cheaper.. As far as I know the cap fits inside the hub bore so smaller would be too loose.
They both use the same hub so I cannot see a problem.
