    Looking for a locking fuel door.
    Not a locking gad cap.
    Does anyone know where i can get one? Not really looking to manually install a lock on my OEM fuel door.
    Thanks !

    I dont think there is an easy way to remove the fuel door. Pretty sure everything is attached by rivets and spot welds.

    We have vehicle with relatively easy access to fuel tank underneath, so I'd rather have gas stolen from the fuel door than from a hole in fuel tank.

    Don't waste time with a locking fuel door, or a cap for that matter, unless there is concern about someone putting foreign material / liquid inside. All current production vehicles have anti-siphon systems in the filler neck. So yes, If they want your fuel, those holes will likely be drilled in the tank.
