Dodge Challenger - Center Cap removal & install
Vložit
- čas přidán 8. 09. 2024
- I have the Dodge Challenger SXT 2018 Blacktop Package. Wheels are black which I love, but chrome lugnuts! and silver dodge rhombus? Cmon dodge! They had to go.
Around the web, people are saying use velcro tape, or suction cups. Worst of all, they want you to remove the whole wheel? No way. I used good ol duct tape. Any tape with strong adhesive will do actually. You just have to make sure it adheres as much as possible to the center cap before quickly pulling off.
Here is the link to my center caps:

Worked perfect for me, I cleaned my existing caps with alcohol. Let dry for 2 minutes and I used Gorilla Glue Tape. Let it sit for about 2 minutes then went to work. And it worked the very first time with no problems at all. For those of you who are having or had issues try what I did and use the same tape I use. Will work for you for sure.
All I needed was 4 successful attempts. While trying to obtain the 4 needed successful attempts, I managed to have close to 10 unsuccessful attempts causing outbursts of yelling, profanity and rage. But all of the raging quickly subsided after a successful attempt, then quickly returned after several more unsuccessful attempts. I did thoroughly clean each center cap with rubbing alcohol and used very sticky tape. Thank you Miguel for making this video showing us an easier way how to remove the caps without taking off the wheels.
4 years later. Just tried it. Freaking worked!! Left the duct tape on for a while to make sure it adhered nicely before pulling. Thanks dude!!!!!
I have to admit when I started watching this I thought “no way”. Well hot damn! I just swapped all four in under 5 minutes. I barely even cleaned the wheel, to be honest.. just some gorilla tape and a pair of vice grips to make even easier work of it. BAM!! Thank you!!
Doesn’t work... Tried so many different kinds of freaking tape and the only thing that happens is me ripping tape off my wheels... Smfh
well if you are replacing them anyways, you could try hot gluing the tape to the cap
I have a 2022 Dodge Challenger Scatpack. It worked great for me. JUST REMEMBER GUYS... do not get too long a piece of tape and make sure YOU PULL FROM THE MIDDLE.
OMG! That was SO easy! Going to order my new center caps now. Thank you
My caps have the words dodge. Im thinking about doing the lettering red with black backround with my black wheels maybe red lugs to match the letters
wow, i can't believe its that easy to be popped out. my lexus has a wire spring behind it and i couldnt remove the caps without removing the wheels from the car.
Thanks a lot for this method! Tried the suction cup method and it didn't work but yours did! Thumbs up 👍
Great video bro especially one handed! New caps are dope af!
Videos always look easy
Genius, you’re the man, thanks for sharing!
Thanks for the video, it worked perfectly for me!!
Your genius, I’m planning to do this week
This is why I love CZcams lol. Good lookin out for this quickie.
Dude!! You sir. Are a frikin genius!! It worked!!! Lol
Man that was easy man. Thanks
Big difference 👊🏾 🔥
Thanks for the vid
Also, try using a suction cup like one for a windshield phone holder.
Props bro! Thanks for this... I'm replacing with the exact same center caps you did.
Thank you I saved the day here used the same method for Jeep Wrangler
Wow!!! Thank it worked 💪

Thanks
The best..💯💯👌🏽
Thank you for this one fam
Thank you for that info. I really appreciate it. Was very helpful. What size lug nuts did u order
Thank you for showing to the thieves 😂
Awesome idea for sure......
Smart man
The new center cap has a different design but they all fit?
Yup! I was sceptical, I used gorilla duct tape and the disc just popped out.
I’m wanting to swap out the chrome lug nuts as well. Aren’t they a special rated lug nut too? Where did you find your black lugs? Thx
I tried this on my charger and the tape just comes off like the cap is bolted in or something. It looks like it doesnt have a wheel cover to pry off either so idk how to get it off. Any ideas?
Thanks man
This 100% works with Gorilla tape. You don't even need the pliers.
Thank you 👍👍👍
This works on cheap Dodge rims
Wow and here iam using a screw driver trying to pry them out
Cool ass hack got me out of a jam 2 thumbs up
You must have done super tape
Doesn’t work, just tried it. Thanks
Sweet, thank you
Nice trick
Damn u lazy like me. Thanks for the video
In my Denzel Washington voice,
My Nigga... You did that Playa.. I was going to take my rims off but I was like let me see what CZcams has for me. No need to take them off when there's another way. Good Shit very helpful I'll pass it on.
Thank you bro!!
Excellent
Thanks for the video. I also have a 2018 Challenger SXT with the blacktop package and those same wheels. I want black lug nuts for my wheels too but any of the black lug nuts I've seen, at least the ones that use a special wrench so the wheels can't be stolen, are for aftermarket wheels only. Did you buy standard black lug nuts or did you find ones that are locking lugs? Thanks.
Archie Pezek I bought standard black lug nuts on eBay. They market them specifically for challenger wheels. Then when they came, I degreased they with alcohol, and let them dry. Then sprayed them with high temp black paint to ensure the blackness. Probably doesn’t need it, but it gives me peace of mind
Thank you for your response. I actually just purchased a set of the gloss black plastic lug nut covers on eBay. They were only $6.50 for a set of 20 (from China) and I'll see how they work out. Thanks again.
is it 56 mm or 58 mm size?
Tried it. Pliers broke in half.
You could just paint pitted those black lug nuts.
What are the lug nut size?
I have the same wheels on my Challenger.. where did you get that all black middle dodge cap for your wheels?
yasir Shan check the description :)
Thanks Miguel I got it👍🏽👊🏾...
Didn't work for me
How much did you get charged to swap the lugnuts
Do it yourself one lug nut at a time and you don’t have to Jack the car up. Just buy a torque wrench and look on your drivers door panel the correct torque number and watch a CZcams vid how to use it. They will rip u off taking it somewhere. I did mine in 15 min.
Fuckin genius, thanks bruh!
Use Suction cups LoL is very easy 1 second boom the caps is out
😳
Lol. Did you not just basically copy the OTHER guy who did it this way in a 9 year old video? 😆
No shit...Wow I literally just changed my lugs to black...My black center caps are arriving tomorrow...Good old duck tape.
