Does anyone have or know where I can get a black OEM fuel door? I'm upgrading to a 2011 RA, and it has the alloy fuel door which I can't stand. The dealer won't swap so I need to buy an OEM and replace it.

I'm near Boston. Dealership guys are trying to tell me the fuel doors are not interchangeable!

You might need to change the whole assembly? The lock mechanism and everything? That may be what they mean. I'm sure its interchangeable, it might just take more then swapping out the door for it to work.

If it's like the one in this pic, no way in h3ll you're getting mine. :D

Besides, I think if you look at how the door hinges for that one vs the stock one, you will see the hinge is very different. I don't know what it looks like on the inside, but I have a feeling its not the same for both types.

I found a dealership who could get me the right color (WW) I wanted in the first place! I didn't want to deal with keeping a black RA clean in new england. BTW on the 2011's they offer remote start, and with the touring package you get heated leather seats... My RA will be all grown up!

hmm nice. But for the remote starts does it come like that ? or is it something that dealership added on? From what I remember there was people having issues with remote starts on our car.

Yea it's a factory installed option. The way I look at it, I don't need to use it but it might be nice to have with heated seats in the winter.
