The last digits in the OEM part numbers indicate either a part update or some type of general revision or part variation. On a part as basic as a center cap It could indicate a new OEM supplier, special color/finish, or hopefully better glue used to hold the crest on.

You may want to check your remaining center caps to make sure the crests aren't loose.

I reattached mine with JB Weld after scoring the backs with a utility knife.

Better Glue, that's funny.

Last caps I bought were loose when I got them, I didn't know there was more than one size. Ended up putting some silicone to hold them in place.
