Smitty Says:  Dog dish caps were made for wheels at least up to 64. (Maybe longer)  Even though they changed the Large wheel cover retaining method after 61 the dog dishes of all years were held on with three nubs near the center of the wheel.
  The easiest way to install these is to place the cap up against the wheel and rotate it against the nubs.  You will come to a place where the cap sort of moves in toward the wheel.  That is where you want it when you pop it on with the heel of your hand or the side of your fist.  You will seldom need more then that to do the job.
  Though I have not exprienced it, I understand that there is a difference in the 61 and 62 dog dishes which makes them non interchangable.  Could be true, but if the correct dog dishes are used on the wheel my method of putting them on still applies.
