Lockable Filler Cap for R100GS HPN 43l Tank

Does anyone know where to get a lockable filler cap for the R100GS HPN/Touratech 43l tank. I'm talking about the paintable nylon tank here which has a different filler cap to the non-paintable one. I've heard from more than one source that Halfords (in the uk) do a car one that happens to fit, but the've got so many it's difficult to tell which one it could be! Anybody any ideas.

Hi

I just ordered mine straight from HPN (www.hpn.de) in Germany, no problems.

Hi Sean,

How did you order it. I've already emailed HPN to find out how to order it but I've had no reply.

Hi

The email address on the hpn web site is different to the one I have been using lately.

If you send me your email address (my email address is in my profile) I will send you the contact details.

Alternatively you could phone and ask for Caroline, who is always very helpful.

For what its worth, i bought one direct from HPN but stopped using it because the rattling it made on the tank was a pain.
