.... and probably my only mod smile

Following on from the recent "How Not to Do" post and my idea of ridding the oil filler cap of the orange plastic covering. I had a few spare minutes this afternoon and got to work - Stanley knife, pliers, Brasso. I'm not the first to do it but I'm pleased with it .... easily pleased or what? laugh

Almost certainly. Although you could put it in the Classifieds here and keep it "in the community".
