RX400h tyre chrome dust caps

[vrodman]

I've just had the wheels re-finished last week on my 2008 RX400h and have only just noticed that they have discarded the chrome metal hexagon tyre dust caps and just fitted plain black plastic ones. They have put new tyre valves in the wheels but I think they should have re-fitted the original dust caps which have been on the car since new. I will call them tomorrow but it's odds on that they will have binned them or lost them.

 

Anybody any idea how much they are to replace ?

I don't know what you had on there before, but they might have done it thinking it was for practical purposes - the metal caps (in my experience) can corrode on and cause problems that you wouldn't get with plastic ones.

 

Based on these for the Ct200h, they are just under £4 each from Lexus https://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/263818861513
