Default 1968 Steering Wheel Shrouds

I have several shrouds for the 1968 deluxe steering wheel. There are 3 different Super Sport emblems used on these shrouds. I'm trying to figure out what cars they were used on. They are SS396, SS and Super Sport. I'll try to add pictures ifI can figure it out. Any 68 experts here?
Thanks, James

Here is the Super Sport one. Picture is blurry but you can still tell what it is.

Super Sport one was for the Impala... The SS one was used on Camaro, usually small block, but I've seen SS396 cars with just the SS logo too... Chevelle used both versions as well... I think LVCamaro's 68 DH chevelle has an SS one, even though the car was originally an SS396. Probably a mid year change where they dropped the "396" part so one emblem could be used regardless of engine. I also have one that says SS427, from a 68 Impala SS427.

"SS" is Camaro, "SS396" is Chevelle, "Super Sport" I don't know

Camarojoe, you sure Camaros also used the "SS396"? I thought Camaros used only "SS" regardless of engine size. Thanks for the help. Bill D
