HELP ME INSTALL A GAS CAP HANGER!!!
Come on fellas. My post about this a week ago just ended up in total babble. 
The DIY link for it doesn't work. The UPS guy literally just dropped the MajesticHonda parts I ordered, in front of my house. [IMG]i/expressions/face-icon-small-smile.gif[/IMG] Fast shipping!
Please guys I want to have it on before my next fill'er-up. I already have that tiny black piece that's supposed to go on the inside the gas door. What next????

Just clean the inside of the door and the back of the black piece with alcohol and stick it on with double face tape, about 1/4 below the little ridge near the top of the door.

Rep Power: 310 DizWiked : Gas cap hanger are a place to put you gas cap while refueling your car at a gas station. It is an alternative to having your gas cap placed on your trunk or further away like on the gas pump itself, for cars that do not have it attached by string to the gas lid. Having the cap in the hanger eliminates the likelyhood of dropping, losing, or forgetting to put gas cap back on. The gas lid will not close when the cap is attached to the hanger, therefore you will know it is not on yet. There are many reason for having a gas cap hanger.
It also keeps paint from getting damaged by the gasoline on the cap, or just by simply dropping it on the surface. I would never forget to put it back on, but the gas-pumpers sometimes need a reminder. They always leave it on my roof or some other place I can't see.
Connie : I went to my local dealership today. They told me that only newer models have the cap hanger, and that the dealership puts them on themselves (just like they put the emblems, badges, and the annoying dealership stickers). I guess they passed mine up when they were putting their finishing touches. [IMG]i/expressions/face-icon-small-disgusted.gif[/IMG]
