All GM dealerships have parts departments with full digital catalogs.

There is no "rear seat option" for panels, they just put them in. Except for option AA5, half panel with regular rear doors no quarter windows.

I posted up the GM part # for the OP back in post #4. I then deleted it because he didn't want just the number. He wanted someone to physically go pull off their SS center cap and look inside for a number.
Doesn't matter. He's just on the long list of people who ask a question then don't come back.

@LivingForTommorrows
Thanks for the thumbs up for Ateam scheme but I want to go solid black at some point. That and the GMC stuff was previous owner which is why I'm looking for Chevy center caps.@OldBlue Thanks for the link, they would do if I couldn't find the right size Chevy caps. Was really hoping for caps with Chevy logo though (not stick on decal). I bookmarked the page though in case I have to go with these.

@Donbrew
Thanks, I might end up ordering from the dealer. I had not priced them there yet and figured they would just overcharge for it. I also found out recently they don't like to give out part numbers because they know we will find them cheaper. I was not aware the rear seat wasn't an option on the panels. I guess someone previously found a matching rear seat and installed it.

@FiremanGeorge
In your recent post I did not see a part#, only that it would be behind another cap. Being I don't have any of these caps I did not have the ability to reference the #. I did notice the post disappeared soon after it was posted. I do not EVER under any circumstances intend for anyone to pull their stuff apart trying to help me, I was only thinking that if someone had to replace one of these they might have the part#. As for the list I'm on, the only one I am trying to be on is the list of satisfied HHR owners in this community of HHR owners. Please forgive me if I have been busy the last few days.

That is REALLY interesting to me.
The ones they call "chromed silver" look black and I have been wanting black without having to Plasti-dip my current ones.
Has anyone here bought those exact parts?

Thanks to all for their help, those are exactly the caps I am looking for OldBlue . The matching tool even says they fit my application and the price is good too. I ran across similar caps at other sites but nothing said they would fit and they all had varying part#s. When I first got my HHR my goal for the wheels was to put Boyd Coddington Junkyard Dogs on it but I have since found out they are not a direct bolt on and I don't know how to make them fit. That being I thought my wheels would do if I got the right center caps for them. These vehicles are just begging for the classic 5 spokers though.

Not sure if this ad is correct as far as price for a set of 4 (as that link says). If you Google that part #, most of the links/ads show that price range for just 1 cap.
A set of 4 new caps seem to run $75-$95.
I would check a little deeper into that buygmparts.ca ad. It may be one helluva deal if that price per 4 is correct.

One way to find out , order some, but be prepared for the dreaded, shipping and duties from Canada.

The ad says for a set of 4 but ads nowadays don't tell everything. I'll find out when I order them. I guess for now I'll order the center caps for my wheels and dream about the classic 5 spokers. Parts lady says Boyd Coddington Junkyard Dogs require modification and same for the AR Torque Thrust. There are the AR Torque Thrust M's but they are chrome plated aluminum, not polished aluminum. There are the Cragar 600G &600C but again they are powder coated or chrome plated respectively. And there are the Euromax 612's if you can get them but again they are chrome plated. Boyds are only polished aluminum classic 5 spokers I know of. I sent an email to them to see about a custom set or a way to adapt them to the HHR. For now it's gonna be center caps and a new belt & tensioner. I got the remote programmed which does everything but open the back doors. For some reason the dealer couldn't get that to work after charging me $60.
