I really really want one of those little chrome L-shaped pieces that fits along side the petrol filler door. I can't find them anywhere and not sure
of the proper name if it has one.
I'm preferably after a new one, unless anyone here has one in good condition they'd be willing to part with... it will have a good home. :P
hehehe
I was wondering how long it would take. Try ebay USA. Make sure you get the one in the green box though, as the one in the orange box will only fit
L;bugs etc.
Good luck
Thanx Ruckus I'll try that, but does it have a name? I wouldn't know what to search for....

is it like a paint protector 4 spilt fuel? our falcon has one, rather useful, dont see them 4 bugs 2 often tho
Wolfsburg Automotive in Coburg has some I believe..
Thanx Sprintstar! Will check them out...
I'll see if I can find a part number. I've still got the box somewhere.
Ooooh thank you thank you! *hopes you find it*
i saw one at the baccus marsh swap meet.. but i'll be damned if i can find one for my filler.. i have the finger thingy :S
Finger thingy....?
well my petrol filler lid, you open from the outside. not the little lever inside the car
anyone can open my filler
it has the undent for a finger to lift the flap
I'm sure I saw one on oz ebay a day or so ago...will have a look for ya:tree
Just in case anyone's wondering what you're talking about :

Found it. Part no: 000 071 317 'Fuel neck opening trim'
should say: 'from 1968 on'
Sorry about the out of focus pic
Awesome, thanx so much Ruckus! Now just need to track one down.... :P
I have an NOS one but I am not sure if it will fit your car. It is for a 68 model that has the little finger indent to open the fuel flap. It has
the instructions on how to fit it but there is a little mark in the corner area but it should polish out. Let me know if you are interested.
Yogie
I would definitely be interested, except my car doesn't have the finger indent at all. I need the other one! D'oh! 
Now that you've put it on here, you realise it'll be snapped up.... 
Thanx heaps for letting me know Yogie. 
My search continues.....
