300 limited gas cap holder

not sure on this model but my car had a small clip on the door, you hook the plastic cable ( gas cap to car body) over the hook

Most Chryslers have a plastic string which is better. The cap just hangs from the opening.

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!

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.

yes there is a plastic strap on the cap, but it hangs down and could scratch the paint if not careful.

I am going to come up with a modification then since nobody has an 05 300 limited I can compare too.

thanks

Can you go to a local dealer and look at a 300 that is on his lot?

Yes, I was going to do that also.
