Default Lexus Center Caps for MKVI TT Wheels

Guys I'm sorry, I'm sure I didn't use the correct search terminology but I need to know what Lexus center caps fit on the MKVI TT wheels.

Here are mine on my old 98.. Rest in peace baby. They're on my 92 now. A friend of mine was asking which Lexus wheel they came from and I was like...Der... I don't know.

Whatever model they are from I'd like to know too. I've been using a set of flat Soarer Lion center caps that came with my car on the stock wheels but I do think I'd like to put a set of Lexus centers on.

95 or 96 SC center caps fit, but they are flat.

I could never figure out which concave ones work.
The 92 turbine ones don't work, 42603-24130, does NOT work. They were too small

Measure your center caps for me and I will see if they are the same ones as my LS400 wheels. They look very similar.

I'm pretty sure the LS400 ones won't work. I think they're to big. I'll measure when I get back home and post what I find for you.

I used Dupli-Color Perfect Match silver for Toyota vehicles. Matches perfect. I bought it at Auto Zone.

My stock wheel center caps from my '95 SC300 fit perfect and look OEM.

These look like the 95-96. I am actually looking for 1, one of mines got scratched off for some reason. See my post in classifieds.

That is correct, those are the only wheels that have the same size convex shaped caps. Off the 95-96 SC300.
