Oh oh!! Another female!!!! I'm comin' ta git ya!! j/k -Welcome to the club.

Back on topic.
We should be able to do multiple choices for those of us with 2 or more Bonnevilles.
My 1994 SLE with keyless entry doesn't have the fuel filler door lock, but my 1999 SSEi does. I'm going out right now to check my brother'* 1992 SSE which is sitting just out the front door- first I have to find the keys as no-one has seen them in about 4 months.

Martin, just open the door. If it doesn't open, it'* locked. If it opens, look for the locking mechanism and the tab on the door.

DUR!!! Thanks for slapping me up along side the head Will.
Stepped out the door and popped open the door. Yup -the 1992 SSE has locking fuel filler door.
I believe my old 1993 SSE had it also.

I have it. But I still bought a gas cap with a lock on it anyway to be on the safe side.

My friend'* 94 SE does not. Seems like such an inexpensive option I don't know why they didn't put it on all Bonnes.

LOL, When i first bought it, i knew the new SSEis required Premium only but i didnt realise the older ones did too of course, until i opend the fuel door and noticed it says PREMIUM ONLY!
Also, that day, (the day i bought it) I didnt know how the fuel door opend so, i opend the trunk (remebering a trick from my park ave ) I used the manual release..that night i read up on it in my manual!! D'OH thats how its done!
