I almost thought you could be right Superstroker ( I was looking for awhile ) but I found a guy on another site that makes them if anyone's interested. I REALLY hate that plastic crap. HAHAHA And your right the 6.0 and 6.4's can be found.

i'd bring in a plactic cap and get a price quote. i would do a 1 1/8" hex on top. instead of the recessed 1/2" drive.
