Push through center caps

Are there push through center caps for 2008+ Xb factory rims? The center is 60.1 mm, or 2.37 inches.
I've changed my mind about buying rims that are a dime a dozen and want to make my own creation.
Or does anyone make a center cap that fits the factory rim.

Are you talking about a dust cap for the steel rim?

Or the alloy add-ons Scion sells?
(Those and the steelies are different-> the open steelies have no flanges for a center cap, so one must be glued in my RTV or the like.)

I looked the dust caps but, was wondering about a push through cap so you wouldn't have to glue it in. They alot of push through caps and thought about this instead for my steel oem rims.

The issue on the steelies is 2 fold.
1. The front wheels have axles sticking out, so a flush mount "pop-in" won't fit even if you find one of the same diameter. Though, such might work in the rear ones, which are flush.
2. The wheels themselves don't have built-in flanges for centercaps.
If you can find a "pop-in" cap that fits an alloy wheel, it should be fine. Most alloys have faces thicker than the steelies. The steelies are basically thin stamped steel, so don't have much of a "rise" to them.
