Overview

Our Fuel Flap Latch Mechanism Kit is designed as an OEM+ replacement restoring function to the fuel flap release system. This assembly connects to the interior release cable and enables the fuel flap to open reliably when actuated from the driver’s seat.

Over time, the original components can wear, loosen, or fail leading to inconsistent release or a stuck fuel flap. This kit replaces and upgrades the key mechanical elements of the latch system, ensuring smooth engagement and reliable operation.

*This assembly requires and does not include the OEM metal bracket that connects to the latch release cable.

  3. Locate the open end of the push rod with the OEM metal bracket hole/cutout.
    Apply forward pressure to compress the spring, allowing the push rod to engage into the bracket guide.
  4. Ensure the retainer clips into the receiving metal tab on the bracket and is fully seated.
  5. From inside the boot/trunk, align the assembly with the square cutout on the inner fuel flap panel and insert into position.
  6. Thread the locking nut onto the retainer from the fuel filler inside face while applying forward pressure to hold the assembly in place. Tighten until secure.
  7. Reconnect the release cable if required and test operation from the driver’s seat to confirm smooth pening and proper return.
