Locking gas cap for 2016??

[terb]

Yea, if they put sugar in there it will not go to the tank till the next time you fill up with fuel!!

It's not locking but I like it! OE for EcoDiesel. SNOKING recommended it.

Amazing! MY truck stickers at $67K, comes without a fuel cap and it's OE on the Eco-Diesel?

Reminds me of having to order fender liners for my 02! Dodge/Ram are sure tight when it comes to plastic goods!

I want the Bem!

I've also been thinking about swapping the filler neck out with another truck that can accept a traditional style locking cap......Couldn't be too hard

Clip their link on keys to see that.

OK now I get it. Do you think the keys are all the same or are they individual for each lock.

Anyone spring for one of these yet? Looks nice and functional but want to hear from someone with one before popping $60 for one.

I bought one from BEM a couple of months ago. I'm happy with it.

Tom can you describe the key function, do you feel it is secure, is each key keyed to only one cap?

There is a very good CG video on the ********* site which illustrates how the cap works. I believe the keys are all the same, as no reference to lock number is required to purchase additional keys. The mechanism is pushed into the fill neck and clamps around it as well. The design is not that of a traditional lock and seals very well. The key is a cylinder that fits over the locking mechanism and has an offset protrusion that is inserted into a mirror image dimple in the lock, and rotated to unlock and to lock.
It seems to be difficult enough to open, that whom ever is looking to mess with the fuel fill neck will go to someone else's truck.

Thanks for the detailed information TomBrady. Much more informative than the CG video. Appears the "Key" design is more to keep the average person from getting into it, kind of like a security TORX bit. Thanks again. This is going on my wish list.

Thanks Tom, now if rumors are correct they will soon have a blue one for the DEF fill.

Glad to help.

Got an email from BEM this morning. They released the locking DEF cap.
