Default question about center caps

ive got the ls special edition wheels and i noticed either accords or maybe preludes have what looks to be the same size center cap... and since the wheels are on my civic id like to get center caps with the H or even if it says Honda i dont care, just dont wanna end up wasting money for something that wont fit, if anybody knows please help.. thanks, heres a picture of what the wheels look like.

I remember another guy got creative and I think he got the center cap from the 13 incher dx wheels and he just covered the axle nut. He didn't get the usual cap that covers the wheel lugs. I thought it looked decent.

Del Sol 14" alloys (they look like mini fat-5's) also had a big center cap like that, although I don't know if they'll fit. I used to have a set, but I have no idea what happened to them.

And I seem to recall the dealer wanting like $25 apiece for Si center caps back when I was rolling on fat-fives. :dunno:

hondaautomotiveparts.com has them at 15 bucks a peice. So I could prob get them for like 8 bucks a piece if you are really that desperate.
