Went to Queanbeyan Swap meet on the weekend, parked the ute in the front row of the carpark near the entrance and some theiving stilll souveniered one of my (repro) XY GS fuel caps. Mutter mutter, oh well another order in to GT Ford Performance. I would hate to have an XY GT, you wouldnt be game to take it anywhere.

a mates got the GT cap on an XW with a chain going down into the tank. lol yes you can still fill it up and it has actually stopped the cap from being stolen we came back to the car to find it dangling by the rear wheel.

I must admit the thought of a chain occurred to me but the loss of a cap versus some idiot banging the cap against my paint put me off.
