Angry Damn oil cap broke...

Ok so I changed my oil last night & everything went smooth, but after I put the new oil in & screwed the cap on, half of the damn threads snapped off in the valve cover
I'm guessing that whoever did my last oil change(dealership) must have torqued that bitch on tight & cracked it, because I barely had it snug when it broke.
I was able to get the broken piece out & screw it in with half thread, but I need to get a new cap ASAP, & I would prefer an OEM one, rather than a cheap aftermarket one. Anybody know where I could get one pretty cheap?? Maybee an aftermarket one if its not cheap or say NOS in it or anything.

CTR Oil Cap

Says it fits all but K-series... but I'd call and make sure.

Yes, I know... and I've seen them elsewhere that say all but K-Series... (which would be the 02 Si, cuz why would anyone think of a CTR cap on a D-series)
Don't forget that no one cares about the regular Civics.
