Fuel filler release

Mdc124 · Nov 14, 2020

Hi

I can’t easily find the part I’m looking for. Can anyone help?

my fuel filler is behind a flap by the drivers door - currently held closed by a brake hose fitting released from under the wheel arch

fine for me but not for the missus

anyone know what part / part name I should be looking for for a cable release for it?

anyone got one spare?

i also need a bonnet release handle if anyone’s got one?

Never seen a Defender with a cable released cover on the fuel filler.
Have seen a few that have had a keylock cover fitted but even those are fitted by the owner.
So you might be looking for a special one off bit of kit.

Cheers

Has anyone else a rear tub with a flap over the filler neck? If so - what holds it closed / releases it? Mine looks ‘factory’
