To release them, pry the smaller center cap up with a small screwdriver

Buy a bag of replacements at an auto-body supply place and don't worry if you break a few. I think I got a dozen for under $10.

Take it to the dealership and let them do it, your car has enough issues already. We don't need anymore threads...

:

There is a difference between "not knowing," and being lazy and not having any common sense whatsoever, or having the urge to find something out by yourself before asking about it. (I've been "bashed" numerous times in my time here, and I LEARN from it)...unlike the OP who still makes idiotic threads about idiotic questions regarding idiotic matters.
