Fuel lid lock
Does anyone make a replacement "gizzmo" or non locking button latch for the ElectraGlide fuel filler lid? I really tire of digging out my keys to open the lid. Or worst case leave home without the keys.

RE: Fuel lid lock
They also mke one the looks just like the stock one, only in addirion to the keylock, you can push it to open it. With it you can still lock it, if you want. I've had this one on several baggers. Well worth a few $$$....

RE: Fuel lid lock
I installed just the plain HD push button on mine. Hell, if someone needs my 5 gallons of gas bad enough to steal it, they can have it.

RE: Fuel lid lock
I installed the one from EGlideGoodies.com. No key, and it elliminates the gas spilling problem created by the fuel door blocking the view as you fill it (especially when the pump has a rubber boot on it for backsplash control)
Have not spilled a drop since, and never need a key. A simple twist of the wrist and its off or on. Only issue I had, was a slight rattle. fixed that by adding some weatherseal around the inner edge.
