I don't know about DS hub caps but the battery cups are meant to be in around the end of January.

Must dif my NIB out and see if there's some in there, various coulours available, and that site says it has DS decals for mustang and camaro and truck bodies, They certainly found me a NOS set of Merc decals for $14 or so delivered :D

update, looking at the online manual
