Stock Rim question - Toyota Nation Forum : Toyota Car and Truck Forums

itreflop117 · 07-18-2011, 04:06 PM

Really quick, does anybody know where I could find the black piece that has the toyota symbol on it that covers the bearing on the rim? It's a black cover piece that goes in between the four lugnuts. Does anyone know what I'm talking about? I was just wondering where I could find another one because unfortunately mine fell off while driving. thanks for your time!

the parts reference calls it a "wheel hub ornament".

It's generally known as a centre cap, but as mentioned above, the technical term is "wheel hub ornament". You can get one brand new from Toyota but it won't be cheap. Your best bet would be to hit the local junkyards/wreckers and see if they'll sell you one separately.

This is from Costa Rica. That price is around $20 bucks. I´m sorry you can get it :S

pd. that´s funny.. this is the first time I see that a person from US cannot get something for his car within the US, and we have it in CR hahahaha. When I need something I normally get it from US hahaha

Bless!

There were cheaper ones on there, but they said "TOYOTA" on them instead of the logo, which means they were most likely meant for the 6th gen... I would try a junkyard first, because if you think $20 is too much to pay, wait til you find out how much the stealership wants

I'd give you 3 for free if you were in MN! One of mine fell off too.. done caring.

I got mine from a local jy..... they had 4 bins full of hubcaps.
I figured even though my kid drives a Prim, she could use a centercap.
So low and behold..... towards the bottom of the bin,
I find about a dozen and grab 3.
Took em to the parts counter, n the guy says " dollar each".
Try your local jy..... they'll be there.
