Ok, I went ahead and modded my locking gas cap. You'll note where the red arrow is, I drilled in that area (on the opposite side of course) with a 7/32" drill very carefully at slow speed. Then just deburred the hole of the plastic "flashing" that was left behind and voila!..a hangy gas cap again. Me so happy. \:D/ \:D/ \:D/

Very nicely done, I drilled my hole just below yours, on the slant/angle on the cap. I wasn't sure if there was room right beside the key hole. Anyone attempting this should drill carefully so that you don't exert too much force, otherwise you may end up cracking the plastic. I just used elbow grease with a mini sharp screw driver and starting poking a hole through the material. After that, I just grabbed a drill bit and started (by hand) to enlarge the hole.
