Default Ebay TRD Oil Cap? Will it fit?

Been interested in getting some stuff for my engine bay and happen to come across these two oil caps which i believe are the same thing. I was just wondering if it would fit for the tC.

My guess is that it doesn't because it is not a screw on but I just wanna make sure and see if anyone else happens to have em.

Only reason i am looking at these ones is because they are red and that is the theme of my engine bay.

I looked at those and did not know if they would fit myself I just went and bought the AEM oil cap for 8bucks. I would only get something the had threads to it not sure how that will fit without holding it in my hand up close.

i think they should fit cus i have a aftermarket one that design looks exactly like that except its a trasnformers. You should email the seller and ask him and if it doesn't im sure he will gladly do a refund. if not then don't risk it

I got one of those ebay trd oil caps, it has the threads and it screws it perfectly. But if your still using the plastic engine cover you wont be able to screw it out. Have to take the engine cover off and then the cap to change oil. Or maybe they sent me the wrong one I dont know lol.
