Default Locking gas cap found!

I just bought a new Stant from http://www.rockauto.com/catalog/catalog.php The Stant number is 10510, and they have 'em for about 12 bucks! With shipping, it comes to a hair over $20. Cheaper than getting 'em from Stant directly. They accept Pay-Pal as well as the usual methods. Hope this helps someone.

Now what would be cool is if it could be rekeyed to match the ignition key.

Update: Just got the cap and it IS the right one. It even has a groove where you can attach the stock plastic lanyard. Stant wants $23.95 for these things, and RockAuto sells 'em for half that. It comes to a bit over twenty bucks with shipping. I wasn't so worried about someone stealin' gas, but what they might put IN my tank. It's cheap peace o' mind.

I love Rock Auto!! I buy all my factory FoMoCo parts there. Half the cost of the dealer stuff and it's the same friggin thing! Good to know I can depend on them for an 05(06)

going there right now! Thanks for the update!
Has anyone bought any other accessories for the GT from Rock Auto?
Would LOVE to find a supplier who not just has everything I want but who has the stuff in stock!
I bought a Mustang license plate frame on Ebay, you know the classic one with the 2 ponies on each side in chrome? And the guy e-mailed me that he didn't have any in stock! Who puts stuff up on Ebay without having it!

That's great to know, I'll probably be ordering one very shortly.

By the way, does anyone know where I might find a magnetic oil drain plug for the '05?

May I assume that this locking gas cap will fit on both the GT and the V-6 coupe?
