Hey all, can someone give me sum info regarding fuel caps for the corsa B, im after an actual locking one like the one in the Haynes Maxpower Corsa guide which basically needs a little bodywork but looks sweet. Its a dimma style one but dimmas cap seems to only provide the one that screws on the top.

or can sum1 enlighten me

Prices and places would be a help. Searched thru loadsa sites but there aint that much info available and bluddeh Dimmas phone numbers dont work fer sum reason so i cant research those.
One last thing, i need some recommendations for a leather re-trim. Anyone had a good quality one done?
Cheers all

heres what u mean, i have one, i have smoothed the lip out which the cap gives u so u have a total flush body.
when i was buying mine i was told Sparco had stoped making them all together (told this by a mate in the trade) i had to go to PVD and get mine BUT i ordered Oct 03 and it came March 04.
i dont know anywhere else what makes the casting for the caps, as the caps u can buy from loads of places.
