Does anyone know where i can get a locking billet gas door? Im stillin highschool and the new thing is to put **** in peoples gas tanks... its really pissing me off, no one has done anything to my car, and i dont think they would but i just want to be safe.... i figure i can just get a locking gas cap, but ive always wanted a billet door and my dad brought up why not just get a billet door that locks?

any help would be great thanks in advance

 

Don't know of any locking billet gas doors that work on a f-body other than the Mitsubishi door mod (which I have). That fuel door fits very nicely with little modification needed to the car. I just used a GM locking gas cap with the fuel door. The cap I ordered works with the factory gas cap tether also.

alrite i was going go to go down and get the looking cap today just in case.

 

what is the mitsibushi door mod? just incase i may try and tackle that

 

Don't know for certain if they work on a camaro?

Basically, it's an aluminum fuel door from a Mitsubishi Eclipse, that with some slight mods to the car, fits perfectly. Obviously you must drill out the rivets that hold the factory door on and there is a slight amount of grinding in the panel at the hinge area involved - but nothing to extensive - and you could re-install your factory door without noticing that you had done anything if need be...

A search on the forum for this will tell you in more detail also...

 

Im pretty sure Jeg's offers a billet fuel door for f-bodys, not sure if there is a lock on it though.

 

gm locking fuel cap? do you have a part number for all of use who would like to get one? did u just go to the parts dept @ the stealership? thanks for the suggestion/post!

 

Actually, I don't remember the P/N - the correct number was posted in a thread on LS1.com a long way back. I don't know if the thread still exists as they revamped the forum/server and a lot of info was lost.

If you go to any 'competant' GM parts dept. they should be able to tell you which one will work. Make sure they give you one that will work with the tether. The cap will not come with the tether, but you will be able to get it over the cap with no problem...

 

how does this cap lock?

 

Looks exactly like the stocker but has a keyed lock tumbler built into the center ridge of the cap. You lock/unlock with a 1/2 turn of a key. When the cap is locked it will still turn on the outside (but freely - no clicking) but inner part will not turn so cap cannot be removed.

 

after you lock it, it slips internally so that you cant unscrew it, the only way to unscrew it is to have the key in it

 

oh cool,ill have to pick one up! Ill go ask the stealership, any idea what they cost?

 

Good luck. I have been looking for some time
