    The cap is secured with 3 2-inch screws that are fitted through the spare and screwed into the back of the cap.

    meaning you have to take of the wheels to remove the caps!

    OK thanks! That's what I concluded too, but I just wanted to make sure there was not another way before I pull all my wheels off!

    I'm in the process of finishing my total de-badge and I have a simple plan for the center caps. But I am ordering new rims and tires next month so I will just wait until then to do it.

    Thanks - Bart

    If you want to go for the absolutely simplest way to debadge, someone had sugggested that you get 4 round 3 or 4-inch bubble-type mirrors, and just stick one on each center cap.

    I did it, and it looks way better than having "Isuzu" there. Yes, its kinda ghetto, but it doesnt take a lot of effort, and it adds a bit more shine to the wheels...
