    I took off the wheel cover and realized my car is missing the center cover cap. So I added this one instead. What do you think ? I feel the wheel design is a lot better than the wheel cover and it's also winter time soon need to cover the wheel bearing with something.

    If it stays in that's all that matters. It'll definitely prevent rust-up. Pretty sure there's a Toyota centre cap. Are the 19" rims bare with a centre cap? That'd probably fit, and maybe more secure. For that I'd check with a dealership parts department; trying to use Toyota USA's parts site now is hopeless/

    Part 42603-52170 seems to be the OEM center cap for every model and trim of Toyota since 2016

    They're either 56mm or 60mm.
    I guess you could measure with a Vernier gauge.

    FWIW, the caps for my European non-factory Prius accessory 17" wheels were 42603-42170. But who's to say whether they're different, or if they were whether they'd be more likely to be a better fit for the factory 17" wheels.

    Could just be a different colour (they're black).

    Oh it will definitely stay. I made it with my 3d printer. I wanted something less flashy.

    The part number says this is for the 93-96 Camry?

    According to? When I searched for the part number, main thing that showed up was the bZ4X.

    (As mowgli suggested, there probably aren't a huge number of different cap parts in use.)

    Nicely done!

    Any chance that you could share the CAD file? And any suggested resolution and infill percentage settings? What material did you print with? Thanks.

    I bought and tried OE Part Number: 42603-52170 on my Prime SE 2024 - it falls right through!!
    3D model would come in handy, specc.

    Someone can maybe measure the hub opening inside diameter carefully with a caliper and post?

    It's 60mm on the original 17" alloys.

    Another factor is the groove location inside the bore, how far back it is from the front face. That’s crucial for the caps jaws to lock properly.
