·The spring that pops open my gas cap cover when you pull the release has broken off. I've still got the spring but the plastic tabs that hold it on have fallen off.
I'm not too confident about finding a glue that will secure metal to plastic, particularly when there are also possibly gas fumes and the Florida heat in the mix so I'd like to replace this part - as it is I've either got to have 2 people to open it or I have to wedge something under the latch release (my squeegee handle works).
I've googled for "RAV4 gas cap cover", "RAV4 fuel door", "RAV4 fuel cover" and every other combo I can think of but can't find anyone selling this - though I may just not know the correct term to search for.
Anyone know where I can buy one of these online? If I have to buy the whole housing including the door I'd like it to match - it's a maroon (dark red, slightly metallic) 1999 4-door RAV4.
I suppose I could take the whole thing off but besides looking bad and probably being less aerodynamic my gas would likely be siphoned these days, and my gas cap might go missing too.
Any info please CC any replies to [email protected] - I'll check here too though.
THnx
