Locking Gas cap hard to find?

Post by darrylrobert »

Has anyone got a lockable gas cap, i realise the door locks after a set time but its plastic and can be very easily prised open??.i really like the idea of locking it.


Out of curiosity i attempted to take a spare i have apart... Well its extremely difficult/impossible to do without destroying it. Very interesting to see whats inside though..
