    I've got a UK T-Spirit Gen II Prius. I lost a hubcap, and I've decided to take off the other 3 and leave the alloy exposed. But I want centre caps before I do this.

    I went to my local Toyota dealership asking for some centre caps, they were useless, and said that there was no such part officially, and that therefore they had no means by which to look it up.

    I've found a few threads with part numbers for a 15" wheel, but it is my understanding the UK prius has 16" wheels, and so I'm not sure what part # I need to tell my local dealership. I assume these parts are technically for other Toyota's (the yaris, for example.) Obviously, that doesn't bother me so long as it fits!

    Hoping someone can help!

    I know it's not what your asking for but I have seen a few single wheel trims on eBay if you decided to replace the missing one.

    I managed to buy a set of four new centre caps made for a Yaris (I think) from my local Toyota dealer in Norwich. I will look for the part number tomorrow. The caps fit well and look good with the 16" wheels on my T-Spirit.

    Sorry for delay; here is the information that my local Toyota garage has just sent to me: "The wheel centres that you were supplied with are Toyota part number 42603-0D060 which are fitted as standard to the Aygo and Yaris. They retail for £15.82 inc VAT each "

    Thank you midatlantic! A great help!
    Can I just confirm to be 100% that part # 42603-0D060 is to fit thr 16" wheels on a Gen II prius. The reason I ask is your vehicle year says '2009' - wouldn't that be the gen III?

    Yes, mine is a Gen II, last of its type that year and I do have the standard 16" T-Spirit alloys with the hole in the middle. But these bits of plastic are really expensive, I had forgotten how much I had paid a year or so ago...must have been mad.

    Thanks, I'm going to take the hit and order them. I'd prefer to pay extra and know I'm getting the correct part than spend £20 on some dubious ebayed caps from Korea that may or may not fit once they arrive!
