I'll be faced with the same scenario someday with my Toyota FJ Cruiser. So in the 5 years of ownership nothing has gone wrong with it. It feels really built to last. So whatever I'd have to pay for this center cap will be alright by me. I even dread taking my FJ in just to change the oil what a hassle. So I'm so glad its as reliable as it is. Hey thanks for putting this up!

Great video! Just a heads up, the bottom of the Toyota logo on the center cap is supposed to be pointing to the valve stem or to the wheel lock. Wheel locks are also supposed to be in line with the valve stem but on the further lug nut hole. Generally the rule is if you have wheel locks then the bottom of the center cap points to the wheel lock, and if not, then the bottom points to the valve stem. Personally I line them up with the valve stem. I did noticed the side with the original center caps lined up correctly so maybe you just skipped it for the video. Can't wait for more videos :)

When you're ready for new tires I highly recommend the General Grabber HTS if you go with a street tire. Of the four sets of tires I've owned on my 2000, the Generals and Michelins had about the same ride quality but the Generals were far cheaper and lasted a bit longer. Hankook Dynapro HTs are close in ride quality but a little nosier. The Bridgestones I had (I can't remember the name) had a very harsh ride for just a street tire, and lasted no longer than any of the others. Cheers!

Cheap stuff on ebay is usually overstock items or discontinued items or aftermarket copies. You got lucky on finding these caps at that price. Good for you. I think many items on ebay have been purchased and resold at a marked up price.

This a simple solution. If yours are not too damaged and you have a little bit of artistic ability, lighty sand, primer and paint then spray seal them like I did with my 1997 Toyota 4Runner. The only difference is, I painted the middle logo a different color, the same as my interior which is blue. So I gave it a custom look and get compliments all the time. A little labor and under $20 for paint and sealer and I saved a few hundred dollars on newer parts...😏👊💥

The majority of the problems with these originate, I suspect, at the tire dealers and other service stations. I notice at least one at least a little loose every time I walk back to the car after service. I imagine they also break them too. I will start removing these before I take the car in for wheel or brake service.

Toyota builds great cars / trucks, but thinks that customers will be loyal , no matter what they charge for service and parts. Even the parts guy at Toyota is embarassed when looking up the parts prices. No wonder eBay, Amazon, and parts stores are doing great business. Unfortunately, most manufacturers do the same overpricing.
