Those caps and rotors are made on the same production line regardless of what box it comes in. They're available to order from just about any motor factors, it's the same on all the even fire PRVs except the laguna (eg 95 Renault Safrane V6, 95 Citroen XM V6, also 85 Volvo 760, 95 Espace etc etc etc). Although Dave's price is pretty good. Got a set recently from the local place in 2 days and I think £1 more.

The evenfire cap and button are the same as an E28 535i, 635 and many other big BMWs from mid 80s to early 90s.

Some years ago I was quoted £120 but a bloke I knew got one through trade contacts for half that.

Now I'm wondering if that other PRV installation,the Peugeot 605,which ought to be identical to Cit's XM,uses the same cap/arm.Certainly the one I fitted two years ago in my 605 SV 3.0 (12 valve engine) resembled the Alpine's one.
The ones for the Pug came from Halfords for about £40 part no.s HDC554 cap HRA546 arm

If it's EFI and a PRV, and not from a Laguna, then it's the same. (Laguna doesn't run a dizzy)
