Default Well, that would work but they are like 40 bucks, the homemade version should be around 20 all toget

her, im hoping i can find one that fits for a few bucks, otherwise ill just buy a motive, but id like to save the money and just make my own then i dont have to wait for it to be shipped as well.

Default I used the cap off a junked VW mkII Golf or Jetta

It had an electrical sensor on the top, but I just snapped it off, drilled the cap and put a quick lock fitting on it.

Default Thanks guys, ill try going to a junk yard i bet ill find one. I went to checker and autozone but..

they just have the none threaded kind, like our oil cap.

I got the P/N off mine 893 611 351 A. But no sites have it, and they sites that do have caps for our vehicle seem to think they are the type with a sensor built in so maybe the dealer will have one cheaper and i can use the new one on the car.

Default I have a CNC'd aluminum one that works quite nicely!

Bought it from a guy on Vortex for $15.
