Default Gas Cap

When I picked my car up from the previous owner, it is missing the convenient little plastic cable to allow the cap to just dangle. Are replacement ones available some where?

You need a gas cap w/ "tether". They can be found from the dealer or possibly other parts stores. It seems to be a common problem with these cars that the tether comes loose or breaks in some fashion.
