Well, with the insane gas prices I'm really thinking of getting a locking gas door for my car, I was thinking that most of you are thinking the same thing, so why don't we do a group order to see if we can get a cheaper deal on them.
I for one want one.

I tried like hell to take the old gas out of my car, short of drilling a hole in the gas tank I could not get a drop of gas out of it.
I'd still be interested tho :P

i can probably get the euro door kits but i dunno about any other doors.
Just some FYI:
the focus like most post 98 cars come with an anti-siphon device which make it impossible to steal gas.

Well mitch, I think it's just the stock euro focus locking gas door most of us would be wanting. it's what I want to get, mainly because it's something I was planning on getting when I did the rear of the car next year.
but with the price of gas being still over a $1L it's been bumped to near the top of my list of things to get.

i checked into it recently and there would be no to a minimal discount on ordering a bunch of these doors. Maybe 5% off... not really anything to get fired up about on a GB.
