Dodge Challenger - Center Cap removal & install
HTML-код
- Опубликовано: 16 дек 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:

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!!!!!
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.
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 was already stressing then stumbled on this video appreciate it brotha
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.
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.
I'll add to the praise. I was super skeptical, but this worked. Great information!
OMG! That was SO easy! Going to order my new center caps now. Thank you
Also, try using a suction cup like one for a windshield phone holder.
Great video bro especially one handed! New caps are dope af!
This is why I love RUclips lol. Good lookin out for this quickie.
Thanks a lot for this method! Tried the suction cup method and it didn't work but yours did! Thumbs up 👍
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?
Your genius, I’m planning to do this week
Props bro! Thanks for this... I'm replacing with the exact same center caps you did.
Dude!! You sir. Are a frikin genius!! It worked!!! Lol
The new center cap has a different design but they all fit?
Thank you for that info. I really appreciate it. Was very helpful. What size lug nuts did u order
Man that was easy man. Thanks
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
Thanks for the video, it worked perfectly for me!!
Genius, you’re the man, thanks for sharing!
Videos always look easy
Thank you I saved the day here used the same method for Jeep Wrangler
Big difference 👊🏾 🔥
Thanks for the vid
Genius man!thanks so much for this video bro!saved me a lot of hassle!clean ride bro!
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👍🏽👊🏾...
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 RUclips has for me. No need to take them off when there's another way. Good Shit very helpful I'll pass it on.
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?
What are the lug nut size?
You must have done super tape
similar product in DewFlew
Wow and here iam using a screw driver trying to pry them out
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 RUclips vid how to use it. They will rip u off taking it somewhere. I did mine in 15 min.
Yup! I was sceptical, I used gorilla duct tape and the disc just popped out.
Man if y’all don’t get a butter knife 😂😂
Thank you for showing to the thieves 😂
Thank you 👍👍👍
Doesn’t work, just tried it. Thanks
Wow!!! Thank it worked 💪
The best..💯💯👌🏽
Thank you for this one fam
You could just paint pitted those black lug nuts.
This 100% works with Gorilla tape. You don't even need the pliers.
Didn't work for me
Thanks
Tried it. Pliers broke in half.
Thanks so much
Sweet, thank you
Awesome idea for sure......
This works on cheap Dodge rims
Smart man
Cool ass hack got me out of a jam 2 thumbs up

Excellent
Thanks man
Thank you bro!!
Damn u lazy like me. Thanks for the video
Use Suction cups LoL is very easy 1 second boom the caps is out
Fuckin genius, thanks bruh!
😳
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.
