    No help? Mine just came off at the gas station... doesn't look easy to fix.

    Best solution is to grab a new fuel door assembly from your nearest parts yard / pick-n-pull / whathaveyou.

    The lock assembly is easy-peasy to swap out with your own (for those vans that have the locking fuel door).
