Starsnbars what kind of roof rack is that if you don't mind me asking?

I just bought the OEM non locking Hummer fuel cap off of EBay. Just arrived today in fact.

I like the fact that it has the Hummer logo on it and I was looking for a non-locking unit as I read somewhere that the locks can freeze up in the winter.

So being from Canada eh where the beer is always cold and the women..well, er you get the point...

Being in WINNIPEG, I haven't had mine freeze up even once in TWO winters!!!

yeah, i like the cylindrical locks (like on those ol' Tuffy lock boxes) versus the regular key locks. less chance of the key just snapping off in the lock of the gas cap and being really screwed......

I've also contemplated getting a rear bumper guard and a locking fuel door.
The fuel door is a good idea not only because of haters but because of high gas prices. Murray's auto stores has locking fuel caps for under $30. I know it's not the door, but I don't have the door now.

Is this H3 compatible? This is what I had in mind, looks very discreet, keeps your look stock.

The stock look is waht I can't wait to get away from as far as the fuel door goes. From the first time I went to look at the H3's I really disliked the look of it.

Still says there that it's 100 to 200 bucks when somone does that. I think a locking cap would be a good investment to prevent something like that from even happening.

What about gas thiefs, in these days gas is worth it's weight in gold. Does the H3 have an anti-siphon mechanism?
