3 years later and your video still helping people, including myself 👊

I just got my new center caps and searched for a way to take them out without pulling the wheel off , several videos popped up.This method worked super easy and fast for me.Granted I had a new suction cup holder for my work phone that I never used but it worked great.Thanks!

Clever guy. I was about to remove all wheels 😃

This should have way more views! Simple trick to save a decent amount of work.

Awesome tip, saves a lot of time and effort and potentially scratching wheels. I also liked the suggestion to throw the centre cap across the street when you’re done.

Working smarter, not harder! Thanks for the tip!

Dope trick! I wonder if this will work on my 2011 911 turbo wheels? I guess I'll find out. They don't possess the holes in them to access them for removal purposes without removing the wheel. Thanks again.

What is it called to buy it online

Is it better to buy the actual center caps or center cap emblem over the current wheel cap? I’m so confused I got STR rims on my bmw and I got the 4 bmw emblem caps over the actual wheel cap but eh I feel like it’s better to just remove the whole cap and just buy the bmw cap and use a suction cup. Luckily I only spent $25 on the emblems. Do you think it’s better to remove the actual calentar cap instead of the emblems? Also would any suction cup work looking online for the right one

@acauto7886

Personally in my opinion, if the center caps arent too expensive then i would just buy the center caps. And any suction cup will work. It just cant be too big. It had to fit exactly only the center cap.

great idea. HOWEVER, there is a risk with wheel center caps that have a retaining ring breaking the prongs. removing the wheel, then removing the ring then removing the cap will avoid any damage. thankfully, wheel caps with retaining rings can be installed without removing the wheel!!!

NO CENTER CAPS looks pretty dope!

worked instantly. i was trying these stupid tape methods.. meanwhile i think my suction cup will prob work... find this video.. then tried.

Duh!! Why didn't I think of this. :)

Oh Snap, done in 2 minutes! It’s 2023 and you just saved me so much time that I can now get my jiggle on with my lady!

But not works for caps with 3d logo on it and which are round caps!

Too bad this only works on the flat face center caps unlike the factory center caps that have raised lettering.. :/
