Fuel Cap Thingy

rogerxp · 06-11-2010, 03:35 AM

My fuel cap thingy has broken. The bit that clicks in and out. Anyone know where I can get one from??? I've tried realoem but struggled to find it (probably there somewhere but I searched for ages). Not tried the dealer as I reckon they'll be next to useless.

Oh, I've taken the protective rubber cover off.

Here's a piccy - any ideas where to locate one (I suppose a scrap yard is a fall back option).

Panic over, I stopped being a lazy b@stard and just called my local dealer. £4.80 and it'll be in later today. Wonder how much they charge for fitting
