i hate that plastic string thing in the gas cap. it can scratch the car. so i cut it but in the past i'v set them on the pumps and drove off too... i am going to atempt to find a hanger slim enough and with a little moding hope to get it on there...........

There's a little slot in the gas door to put the cap in while you're filling up. I don't see how it could scratch the car as long as you put it in the slot...

i found it...and dam....it looks like the they pulled some of the metal back out or something. but its better than nothing

it works surprisingly well. doesn't have to be big at all. Better than my old Jetta that just had slots in the cap to hang it over the edge of your gas door...yeah, i feel real good about doing that.
