Default removing center caps?

How does one remove the center caps from a wheel? I thought I'd ask before destroying one first. I have the 16" turbo S rims, if it matters. One of the rear caps has been loose/rattling for some time, and I'm tired of breaking off tooth picks as a temp. solution ...

If you take the wheel off, you can just pop them out from the inside. Depending on the caps you have, they may have two little holes you can stick something in to pull them off too.

You can buy the tool or make on out of wire.

Two L-shaped allen keys.

Insert.

Pull.

Done.
