Default Honda CRV (2008) How to remove centre wheel cap?

Hi there,

I am struggling to remove my centre wheel cap, I was wondering is there a special trick that I need to do? or simply just push from the inside? I can see there is a spring clip around the centre cap.

What style wheel do you have?

If its these:


... all you need to do is flip them over and tap lightly with the handle of a screwdriver or hammer and it should pop out.

The one that i have is http://www.ebay.com.au/itm/Honda-CRV...#ht_500wt_1219

What do you mean by flip them over? as in I need to take the tyre out and tap from the inside?

With the wheels off of the car, look at the side that mounts to the car (mounting surface). That's the back side of the wheel, where you should tap the back side of the center cap to get it out of the wheel.
