Title: fuel cap cover Post by: andykotzur on September 02, 2003, 09:11:47 AM I dont much like the look of the fuel filling nozzle on the wagon and am toying with the idea of welding in a cable opperated, or key operated cover. Something to make that area look a bit smoother.
Anyone know what model doner cover to look for, and any techniques for fitting? Your information would be appreciated.

Yes trev that was me RE: Mitsu colt, an idea that would still work. I have since used a combination of modified Commdore fuel door and standard guard. Cheers Ed Title: Re: fuel cap cover Post by: JB on September 04, 2003, 06:51:10 AM Hey Ed,
