Locking gas cap....need picture of Moss 114-403

Moss lists a locking gas cap, part 114-403, for $19.95 but they show no picture. If anyone has this specific one on their car and has a pic, please post it?
I want to see if it is the same one other suppliers are selling.

Thanks.

how many folks do you think make a locking gas cap for a Mini ?

How many sell this same item is a different question . . . .

I know there are at least 3 different locking gas caps.
I've seen prices that vary from $16.95 to $34.95.

I've read Canadian style gas caps are different. Do they make a locking one for it?

One thing to consider is whether your car needs a vented or non-vented cap. Newer classics use a vented cap I believe. If you have a vent tube on your gas tank, a non-vented cap is fine. My guess is that a vented cap would work in all apllications- but of course I could be wrong!

Canadian Gas cap has tabs. Don't know about the others because all the pictures show the front.
Here's the Canadian version


I want to put a cap cover on like this:

Seven has your cap listed .... "Gas cap, outside grip"
http://www.7ent.com/products/gas-cap...p-bhh0178.html

They also sell the flip caps

They could tell you if they would work together, I've always found their tech support to be very good

But my opinion is no .... I use the locking cap and the flip cover and the cap has very little gap 'tween it and the flip - no way could I grab a plain twist off cap. I can only remove the cap by using the key as a handle



does your tank have the slots for the 'regular' cap with an inside grip? Then you could use the standard cap and all would be well.





I'm getting gladder and gladder I did not buy a Canada car . . .
