The pair of caps in Boo's pictures are essentially flat, and the very bold
Circle-T stands well above the surface. I'm fairly certain that they are
for the Camry... and maybe other models.
Take a look at my post again. I posted pics of both types of caps.

Boo,

Absolutely correct.

I was just trying to emphasize the distinguishing features of
domed top and recessed Circle-T on the correct center cap...

and flat top with Circle-T standing proud on the wrong one.

Ordered from Parts.com. Hopefully I got it right this time. Thanks everyone.

That said, anyone need those caps that don't fit? I have 4.

That's right. The Gen II Prius center cap is domed with the lines of the Circle-T Toyota logo recessed instead of raised.

Here's a pic from one of the vendors on eBay:



And here's a pic of it on my Gen II wheels:

Thanks but that just doesn't sound right for the price (each) price here for center caps was $64 for 4 plus tax but i'm not sure if they are the right cap and don't want to get the wrong ones.

So we are talking about close to $300 for center caps?
Unreal.

I bet there was some miscommunication there.

The center caps have a MSRP of around $16 each (EDIT: actually, MSRP is $15.15).
