1995 T100 Broken Lock On Gas Tank Cover

[TEA100]

Some ass broke into my gas tank and broke the lock mechanisim on my outside gas tank cover. I want to replace the lock. They want like 65 bucks for the lock at toyota dealership. Does anyone know where I can get a cheaper one? I would appreciate any assistance.
Cheers ,Mike

First place would be the local salvage yard, probably doesn't even have to be from a T100.
Then maybe an online search, plenty of OEM and aftermarket parts online.

Got piccies of what got damaged? You can pull the lock out by removing the U-shaped retaining clip. I'd go with the local salvage/parts yards. You could try Craigslist and see if anyone parting out their T100 truck would let that part go fer cheap or not. Did the lock cylinder git damaged?

That site didn't come up with anything...

Maybe you meant PartsNet.com instead?

...cause if you did...it pointed to Conicelli Parts Center located at 1200 Ridge Pike Conshohocken, PA 19428.

You'd save about $1.30 in the part and $1.24 in shipping...so about $2.54 over ToyotaPartSales.com.

Yea, that's who I meant.
I guess I mixed them with 1sttoyotaparts.com to create a nonexistant company.
Both are Toyota dealers that sell online at a discount.
I use partsnet.com because it's close so shipping is cheaper and quicker.
Plus I know and wheel with the parts guy so somtimes I can get a better deal.

i have a question.....if buying one from a junkyard, would you not haveta have a key from the truck it came off of?? i know mine is unlocked with the key that fits my door and ignition....????????

[BamZipPow]

Yes...you'd have to have it rekeyed to the current key or live with 2 key sets fer yer truck.

Although...you can open the gas door without a key and without destroying the lock or the door...
