Marc,

They're used mostly by the guys flying 40% gas IMAC type aircraft. A local DA or 3W engine shop should carry something that fits.

Greg, yes remember these, I think the fact that the fillers are already under the vent cover panels means fillers with built in covers like these have might make the access a little more fiddly. I will check but there might also be an issue with the large bore tygon fitting the fuel fill one, as I think they are made for the next size down.

These are really nice - but say DA on them.

There are some nice looking ones on this page:

Hangar also makes a basic one.
