I'm curious if any of you have a cheap and/or quality vendor of those plastic fuel door hinge pieces. Mine seems to have broken. (Oregon gas station attendants, heh.. We can't pump our own gas...Stupid, I know.)

Anyway, before I bought the eBay special, I figured I would check with you all for quality control and pricing issues.

Thanks again,
Charles

Dealer... aftermarket one seems a bit flimsy to me. I already broke the aftermarket one within months.

I got the BMW one from Pelican Parts, because the previous aftermarket broke within a few weeks and I wound up having to buy everything. The BMW part did not cost much more than the aftermarket on top of that. Many months later, no problemo.
