haven't had a chance to go and fill up. i'll let you know tommorrow. lol
looks good man! where did you find the hose?? i cant find any for the life of me
Napa carries gas filler hose. they can get it in various sizes and lengths and can sell it by the half foot also.
i've tried napa, autozone, oreillys, advance, and a couple other locals stores and none of them had 1". the biggest any of them had was either 3/4 or 7/8. I got the 1" from a deisel shop. hey joey, if at all possible, i'd get 1 1/8" hose cause that 1" was a pain in the arse to get over the stock fuel line.

its pretty easy to do.
yes it was really easy to do i popped in to help and throw my face int he picture
looks really good well worth mod i think especially after you get the fuel door shaved
The one, the only, ME.
does your trunk close without hitting the gaz cap?
yes it barely touches but doesnt conflict with the trunk closing or anything im gonna look at it tomorrow and see what i can do to make it loook nice still and make it not touch at all
ill keep updated
do you think there is a greater chance of water getting into your engine?
deleted
no there isnt cause the stock cap is still in place no more of achance to get @!#$ in the engine here then in the stock place
ya...Napa only carries the 1.5" inner diameter gas hosing. well around me thats all they have.
i used about 5" out of 1' its no problem for me to send it to you. the only thing is though, i had to dremel the hose from 1" inside to about 1 1/8" inside. lol. its a tight ass fit. just let me know if you want it.
hey can you send me some because there is no one within 100 miles of me that has it and im ready to kill someone! Everyone says we can order it but you will have to pay for a 50 foot roll WTF!!!!!!!!!
wut about droppin gasoline into ur trunk area? no matter wut pump i use wen i pull it out it still drips gasolinie. isnt it gonna drip inside that area around the trunk?
I've already had to fill up twice. theres no issue with gas dripping every where. when i'm done filling up, i pull out slowly. lol. just tap the end of the nozzle against the gas filler and the excess will just fall off in the filler.
I just saw Andy's (COGcaviZ24) fuel filler relocation tonight, and it's hawt. Took a little persuasion from a hammer on the corner and an aftermaket cap, but it doesn't touch the trunk lid.
I was the orginally one to do this mod back in 02. I have detail pics if needed. Let me know.

When I did mine I actally added a little drain hole with a hose so if gas was to drip it would drain to the ground. I hae tons of pics if anyone wants to see.

uuummmmm no no you was not the first one to do this.. peaple have been doing this long before 02 .. I first saw this on a car in the early 1970's ... and I've also seen it on the 55 chevys they would move the filler to behind the tail lights .... so please dont think YOU was the first to do this
I ment iwas the first to do this on this forum. That mod has been around forever.
