That is a hell of a lot fancier than mine. I just bought some PVC pipe fittings from Home Depot and filed them down till they fit in the hole in the rim. The other one was opened until it fit on the rim of the cap.
Cheap and easy.. Like a lot of the people on this board! (IMG:style_emoticons/default/biggrin.gif) |

I found a small spray can (I think an old spray lube can) and it fit perfectly in the ID at the end of the cap.
Tap tap tap and it was out. Cost... free |

Well , supposed to be an ecomm thingy - 914 CLUB key fobs - made them for the FFC folks. I am on the fence as to make/market them - they required a lot on hand work after they were cut.

Yeah, I like the key fob too. As a collectible! Looks too big to put in my pocket or hang from the ignition switch.
