Fuel filler cap alternatives?

Post by Matt The Hat »

The lock on my filler cap is so stiff its gotto go, but i'm having a job finding new or second hand caps the same. Does anyone use any other caps from other vw's?

I was thinking that a mk2 golf one should fit the filler neck, anyone using these?

Thanks

How does any cap fit? locked by two lugs....I don't think it fits any differently to a standard cap.
