I'm going to guess you're looking for an ORNAMENT SUB-ASSY, WHEEL HUB. 42603-35510 https://parts.lakelandtoyota.com/p/_...260335510.html

But those are made of plastic (with metal insert clips). I'm not sure what part would be described as a "steel center cap."

There were black painted steel ones on steel wheels. I've got a couple in my pile, but I can't remember if any of them are fronts.

Here are images of the three steel caps that I could lay hands on.

My best recollection is that they came from factory steel wheels on a '92 4Runner.

Are these the type of cap that you seek???

Cool, new info. Thanks!

With those in place, how are you going to attach the front wheels to the front axles? You can't turn the dial!

These caps are not for vehicles with manual hubs. There is no dial to turn.
