Pedro Posted May 31, 2009 Report Share Posted May 31, 2009 Just fit a fuel cap and boot popper from an S13 or similiar. Good to see you are progressing the B mate, I've got a 73 coupe so if you need any photos for reference points let me know. Quote Link to comment
72240z Posted May 31, 2009 Report Share Posted May 31, 2009 :unsure: I dont understand, cut a hole in a cylinder and then what??? No I mean get a cylinder and cut a hole in the door for it. Make sure the cylinder arm slips into a slit or hole when locked and your done. That's what I would think to do anyway but I don't own a 610 so lol. no need to cut a hole ill take a pic tomorrow of a us spec 610 fuel door and show you how it works Cool, maybe I'm missing something about it but Idk how to add the lock with out a hole?
