Car Forum / Chrysler Cars / March 2005300 limited gas cap holder
I have a new 05 300 Limited and one thing I noticed is there is no gas cap holder in the gas cap cover. All my cars, even my Hynundai has a place to hold the cas cap while fueling. Can any other 05 300 Limited owners confirm if theirs has one or not? thanks! stan@hirise.com >I have a new 05 300 Limited and one thing I noticed is there is > no gas cap holder in the gas cap cover.

The cap just hangs from the opening. >I have a new 05 300 Limited and one thing I noticed is there is > no gas cap holder in the gas cap cover.

The best set up is the old Benz cradle on the backside of the fuel filler door. The second best is the BMW gas cap stand that doesn't let you close it without putting the cap back on.

So it just rubs against the paint? So you don't even have to think about putting the cap in a silly "cradle." And in 12 years and 220,000 miles worth of fill-ups, my wife's car doesn't have any marks on the paint from the plastic gas cap hanging on its plastic tether. Steve has gotten the point.. my 03 Hyundai Elantra and my 02 Dodge quad cab BOTH have cradles in the filler door that you screw the cap in so that it does not it the paint or car. So my question once again, specific to the Chrysler 300 Limited does anyone have a cradle. Of course my cap has a plastic tether that keeps it from being lost. I want to make sure my car is not missing a piece. thanks! stan@hirise.com >> How is that better?

None of the Chryslers I have ever owned have ever had a gas cap cradle. Instead, all came equipped with the tether.

I examined my paint with a microscope. No gas cap paint damage yet. > How is that better? So it just rubs against the paint?

I am going to come up with a modification then since nobody has an 05 300 limited I can compare too. thanks stan stan@hirise.com > was there not a strap???? > [quoted text clipped - 7 lines] >> >> stan@hirise.com > yes there is a plastic strap on the cap, but it hangs down and > could scratch the paint if not careful.

Yes, I was going to do that also. thanks stan stan@hirise.com >> yes there is a plastic strap on the cap, but it hangs down and >> could scratch the paint if not careful.
