Change the filler cap for a VW cap it won't leak then

These rocker covers are always on ebay just needed a paint or polish.

These look nice too

yea they're nice.... but won't fit fiesta or escort turbo's as the throttle body is in the way - they much higher.

more than just removing the fins - you have to cut a chunk out and reweld...

Gotta say that is a good price...

Ł40 was going rate about 4 years ago and I am assuming they're coming up a bit less often as less 16i's get broken.

I have one of these available, with what I believe is the original cap.

Doing a quick google around, I've seen sales at Ł60 ten years ago, and ebay listings for Ł200, but offer me somewhere between the two and its yours. PM me.

For some reason I cant post in the for-sale section.

Just trying to re-home it as I need less things in the house and it is too good to scrap.

Right? I was on here a fair bit, but have had about 6 years out, so presumable it has changed?
One does one have to do to become a gold member? Does it cost more or less than an ebay listing....
