Thanks for the pic... Was never able to figure out how it worked before... My 06 is the same way!

this thread is full of fun little things, such as the gas cap hook, window down thingy, and so on. If you havent read it I would suggest you do, there are some pretty sweet things i found out, like the seatbelt holder on the drivers seat!
Yep, that's where I read it from first. Wished the mods could make that link a Sticky!

I really do think that thread should of been a sticky. For any S197 owner that thread is a must read!

I tried it and it won't stay hooked. The lanyard is too short so it pulls off every time. It takes too long to try and get it connected anyway. Too much trouble. Get a 2010 with no gas cap to solve the problem.

Well, wingman75, I'm tempted to give you a "That's what she said", instead, I have to admit I have the same problem. Mines just barely long enough for it to hang there, and not worth the trouble.

My 2008 has a special hook for it.

That's much better id say. I have the same problem that wingman has, so a sweet hook like that would be awesome

How about this, or something similar?

A cheap alternative.
