Locking Fuel Door

I have a 2010 Ford F-150 XLT Supercrew and I am looking for a locking fuel door that will install easily on my truck. Any suggestions on where to find a locking fuel door. The color of my truck is tuxedo black.

Thank You
Randy

Exactly! I've seen many of the aftermarket fuel doors look and lost a long time but, I've seen many that corrode and or tarnish after a period. I would be very careful as the F-150's are drop dead gorgeous.

Sounds like I'm too late on this one, but I like the locking cap idea over replacing the door. Just my $0.02.

I was thinking about getting the locking fuel cap from Ford...never knew that there were also locking fuel door options. Hmmm...guess I'd have to see it...still leaning towards the cap though. Should we be concerned about the new capless systems? Maning, can someone easilly syphon fuel...how well does it keep out rain snow ice etc?
