Re: Gas cap door I got my locking gas cap at Autozone I believe. It was pretty pricey at $20, but it's well worth it since I have piece of mind. You won't get me with the old sugar in the gas tank trick. That was the main reason I did it. Also, I didn't like how the oem gas cap hung when I was pumping gas. I don't like things touching the paint.

Re: Gas cap door I just bought one on ebay for $16 shipped. It was a new ac delco locking cap that has been slightly modified for a 98-02 fbod. the guy also sells mobil1 only oilcovers on ebay.
I once came out of work and found my hinged gas lid cover swung out on my camaro and footprints on the rear bumper like they people were stepping/jumping on it. I'd hate to see some jealous teenage ricer add something to screw up my motor. I spent some time wondering if they ever put anything in my tank. I guess I was lucky that time since my car has been ok.
If I ever caught someone screwing with my new car... god help them.

Re: Gas cap door mustangworld sells a locking eclipse style fuel door, and an electric version that opens when you press your hatch release button. They are kinda pricey though... and made for mustangs, but I don't see why they wouldn't fit on our cars

Re: Gas cap door See, I like that style cap, I just dunno if I like the silver on a black car... maybe I'll get one in black (I think they make that same cover in black)... Although right now I just need to get ahold of a dremel so I can go polish crazy <img border="0" title="" alt="[Big Grin]" src="gr_grin.gif" />
