For some reason "Christine" did not come with the remote fuel fill door lock. Is it a simple job to find the lock and bolt it on or is there more to it than that?

I think I remember Pat doing the install on his '93. He is probably the best to answer this.

I found his thread but not really any info on what he did or how to do it :?

Looks like you would need to do wiring to make it work, as well as the door and the latch, and maybe the cable.

I was hoping there would be a connector in the wire harness close by, but after taking a quick look, no joy.

The door looks to be set up for a lock, I'd just have to cut a hole in the plastic insert around the fill cap.

Cable???

Maybe an emergnecy release cable in case the electronics fails? I don't really know, It was something that caught my eye in a thread where somebody'* gas door wouldn't open.

According to the owner'* manual, there is a small lever on the unit itself for unlocking the gas door in case of malfuntion.
