...Pouring some fuel additive into gas tank. Bumped into and snapped off the open filler door as I walked back to garage for something...!!! Idiot! :banghead:

Anyway, need a new door/hinge -- door is plastic circular shape with a curved hinge assembly. Opens with remote lever beside driver seat. Haven't found one yet, though local junkyard says he has 'em.

ANYONE ever get and replace one?... If so, where from, how much and how hard to reinstall???

Vehicle: 97 Grand Caravan ES (red)

THANKS - Steve

Have had to replace 2 of those gas doors. Not real bad maybe a couple of hours. Got mine at a junk yard. You have to take the panel loose on the inside of the door because the the safety that keeps you from opening the door if the gas door is open. If you are lucky get one the same color and save yourself a paint job.
