The best place to look for those is on Ebay, or maybe on Craiglist just incase someone is unloading some parts...... Good Luck!!

The steering wheels were made by Attwood, so any Attwood center cap from the same type steering wheel will be the same. There were a zillion made under the Attwood name. The only difference for Crestliner was the name printed on the ring and the particular shade of red.

These Nickel Plated Steel plugs might fit the bill for the center cap. I can't help with the rings - obviously they would need to be custom reproduced.
