The same thing happened to me. I modified my gas cap so that the cover would fit onto it and then expoxied the cover to it. You have to be really careful not to damage the internals of the gas cap though. You really have to grind a lot off to get it to work.

If yours is the same one as mine, it doesn't fit.



Mine does now, however.

That's not true at all. See, you don't know me very well. I frequently open the fuel door, grab the TRD cap with one hand, my no-no area in the other, and sing "Mary Had A Little Lamb" until I feel satisfied.

I wish someone could make "that one" into one of these little Java applets that we can drop into our posts when we feel it's that time again.
