    First off, does anybody here know what it's like to have OCD + ADD, and to get stuck on any stupid little thing, and just not able to do, or think about anything else, until you get that problem fixed ?!?!

    It's like 3pm.... I have major yard / house work, but until I can order some proper wheel center apps for my 2019 I can't force myself to do anything else !!!!!!!!!! @$@$_ ! Ahhhhj !!!!!!!

    Going once.... Going twice....

    Do I really have to spend $78 for factory center caps ? I see about 97 similar caps... Some for much cheaper, but can't confirm that they will fit my 2019 LE ?

    Anybody ? Plz help me save the rest of my day !

    Just DO IT.
    $78 is not a lot of money.
    Especially if it helps buy you some (temporary) sanity.

    Maybe mount the original hubcaps on the walls at home - you'll get sick of them and put them back on the car?

    Well, for me, $78 is a nice little chunk... But yes, at least I'll be able to sleep tonight....

    Okay, so one other thing.... Don't they offer some factory ones(same expensive arse price) that are black with a chrome Toyota emblem ? I think those would looked better, as I'm doing my wheels in Saphire black gloss.....

    Edit; Found them. Factory black with chrome Toyota emblem. And was able to confirm that they fit a 2019 Prius LE. So I'm better now

    Hey BTW, (and I know this is just going to be one guys personal opinion) today, just for the heck of it, I yanked one of those ugly plastic wheel covers off, and I thought the stock aluminum wheels looked pretty nice ! Certainly much better than the cheap plastic hub caps... In spite of the fact they are silver, dirty, and lacking center caps. I think if my black Sapphire plasti dip comes out well, I might end up sticking with them for the life of the car :)

    I got the bottom ones... And in the questions, somebody asked, "Will these fit a 2019 Prius LE" and they got the response, "Yes". So unless somebody was just talking out their but.... I got them coming
    Still waiting on my wheel dip kit though too...

    Conduit blanks/Knockout covers.

    They come in brushed or chrome, or paint to match.
    1-1/2 inch IIRC.

    Usually run about a buck apiece at the hardware store or a little less at the big box stores.

    Well, if I think about it, I'll snap a few during the job, with my phone (I often forget about my phone having a camera).... But being photographer, I'm more anxious to get some good HDR landscape shots of the car, with a beautiful sunset behind it

    Yes, and even these would look much better than a hole in the middle of my wheels, but I spent the big bucks for the factory Toyota ones... Black with the chrome Toyota emblem....
