Ebay gas cap -- anyone know more?

http://tinyurl.com/2pfux6

There is not much in the description. Is it metal? Plastic? Will it remain locked like the original once installed? Will the lever by the seat still pop it open? Anyone know about this? Is it a good deal. I did email the seller, but sometimes those replies can take a loooooooong time.

Thanks all.

the link failed but if yer talking about the TRD one ,a JDM item , it's a snazzy cover that fits over the existing gas cap . i thought it was cheezy at 1st when i opened the package but once installed , it's petty cool ! the door & every thing works like before as i said it's just a cover for the stock fuel cap ,took all of 15 seconds to install .

jlift, that item you posted is a sticker.... I bought a bunch of those at bulk many years ago, for 50 cents each, and sold them on ebay for $10 each, its just a peice of plastic with 3m double sided stick tape, it sticks to your existing fuel door....

NOTE: this item has nothing to do with your gas cap!
