Re: Tail light/ Marker light fuel filler doors

Use the search function at the top of this page and put in "fuel filler" and you'll probably come up with something. It's been done both of those ways plus a lot more. There are some very good set ups that some guys have done.

Re: Tail light/ Marker light fuel filler doors

There some great jobs done out there on these fuel fillers. Do you have to modify the inside of the box? And if you do, does any one have pictures of what the inside of the box looks like after the side marker or tail light filler is done?

Yank put his behind the tail light using the bracket from a flip-down license plate (fuel filler on older GM car)....Here is a pic.

**Oh, his truck is painted now!!**

I was just curious on how much cutting he had to do.
