Re: Misc parts source

You can buy a fuel door hinge from a cheaper source, but I bought two and both did not fit correctly. In fact, the reason why I bought the second one is because I broke the first trying to install it. I bought the one from the dealer because I also broke the second one trying to install it, and it clicked right in in with no hassle or fuss...and it didn't break. So, I'd say skip the cheaper brand and hit up the dealer for this. If you do a search on other forums, you will get the same answer.
