Hi all. I'm new to this forum, I live in Brisbane Australia, and I hope someone can help me. As I was driving down the Bruce Highway a few weeks ago one of the hubcaps flew off my new car for no apparent reason. Unfortunately, I couldn't retrieve it because roadworks had closed off half the road and there was nowhere to stop. I then found out that Toyota dealers charge over $100 dollars for a genuine replacement. Not only that, but there are three different 15" hubcaps (an A, B and C type) for the 2008 Yaris, and they won't tell me what the part number is for mine so I can order it from the US (it’s cheaper to import than buy locally, even with shipping costs and the exchange rate). The guy in the parts department told me if I want to know what the part number is I should look at the back of the hubcap. There is no part number on the back, but I’ve attached a some links in the hope that one of them will take you to a picture. I tried to get some generic wheel covers, but apparently Toyota have raised the wheel rim on my model so universal hubcaps available from the likes of Autobarn don't fit. Does anyone know (a) where I can get hubcaps that will fit at a reasonable price, or (b) what the part number is so I can order it from the US.
