Does anyone have the billet gas cap installed? Is there a gasket behind the mounting flange? Anything you don't like about it? I would like to get one, but I would like it black anodized. Anyone see one like this yet?

No gasket shipped nor required.

I have the billet aluminum model and like it a lot - haven't had a single problem since I installed it. The new inexpensive model is cast alloy but it's made by the same manufacturer.

If your life is so pathetic that you need to get your jollies off by smurfing my name and posting stupid stuff like above, then spare the rest of the world the oxygen you consume and shoot yourself.

Could someone post some info on who offers the gas doors? I saw some reference to a Mopar gas door also? Some prices, details, etc. would be appreciated. There was a group buy a while ago for these from the source that made them. Could someone e-mail the contact information?

Thanks,
scott

There are a couple of companies that make billet fuel doors for the Dodge Dakota, but only one really makes a good product - AMP Research (www.amp-research.com). The others are truly cheap junk that isn't even worth considering.

AMP Research makes two different fuel doors for the Dakota/Ram:

Model #1: Made of billet aluminum, with a brushed finish. The door is circular in shape and smooth on the inside. This is the door that a bunch of us bought with a group buy about a year ago. Retails for $145 but can be found cheaper at www.elitecustoms.com or occasionally on E-Bay.

Model #2: Made of cast alloy, with a brushed finish. This door is kind of square with rounded corners, and has a big cross-hatch (+) with a Ram's head on the inside. Retails for about $60 and is sold via Mopar parts counters, and also have been seen frequently on E-Bay.

Both doors are only produced with a brushed finish. If you want a polished, anodized, or painted door, you will have to arrange to have this finish done after purchase by a separate company - a number of people in the original group buy had their doors painted or anodized after the fact, I think the average cost was about $40 to have this done.
