Hi All

A friend of mine has an incident with his fuel cap the other day where the lock barrel separated from the actual cap. So now he is on the search for a used or new lockable fuel cap (with its own key) but it seems its bloody difficult to source one for his year.

I dont suppose anyone has one they want to sell on here or know where one might be. Hes called round various breakers with no luck.

I believe the grey inner part here is the correct cap :



Also - anyone know if a vx220 cap might fit ??

Thanks in advance

Steve

If it is the lock barrel that has come out of the cap then just go to Lotus and buy a new cap, comes with no lock barrel and cost £50 area when I replaced mine.

Then get your original lock barrel with your own key and put it in the new cap and lock it, it will then automatically fix itself into the new cap.

Same key as it is your original barrel so job's a carrot
