I just picked up the gas cap. At first they were going to charge me because the original service advisor wasn't there to say it was free. I explained the situation and they understood and gave it to me for free.
If I had to do it all over again, I would just buy some sort of cap from Home Depot. This new cap locks, so that's a plus for some, but it also means you have to unlock it every time you fill up (another key on your key ring or floating around in the glove box). You can cut the lock off the cap if you don't want to deal with the locking feature. Here's the biggest design flaw, though. There is a tab on the cap where it touches the base of the filler neck that gets stuck under the plastic housing that surrounds the whole gas tank area. I actually had to break this tab off.
So it boils down to this, if you want the locking feature, get this cap. If you just want to cover the filler area, buy something from Home Depot (some sort of soft block rubber cap made for PVC pipes).
