Who knows the OEM for the metal spare wheel cover that can be colour coded to the body and is stainless steel around the rim. The same type on G500.

Spare Wheel Cover

If OEM means like "factory equipment", the original steel-ringed colour-coded cover costs in the region of € 1,000 (£600).

Every now and then there is one for sale on German Ebay:

But it's going to cost a lot of cash anyway....

You have a cheaper option, which looks the part here:

Re: Spare Wheel Cover

 hi, i bought mine off ebay for a fraction of the price brand new! it came in black, merc graphic, lock and 2 sets of keys! i didnt like the black so i sprayed it red and looks like the real deal. As said before merc wants a fortune for them!

i think its was £65-£90, not too sure! 

wheel cover- not as good quality as you can get- www.ebay.co.uk/itm/Mercedes-M-Class-G-Wagon-Motor-van-Steel-wheel-cover-rear-spare-tyre-wheelcover-/280777591102

Graphic- there are some better ones- www.ebay.co.uk/itm/Logo-sticker-spare-wheel-cover-Mercedes-G-wagon-Class-W463-G320-G300-G350-/280781881905

Re: Spare Wheel Cover

 Hi Ian, 

Thanks for the link; as you said, that particular one isn't great quality and I'm yet to see a nice version on eBay. I'd rather stick with the stock soft cover until I find a good solution.

If anyone does find a quality option, I'd appreciate hearing about it (ideally an OEM unit in good condition!)
