Done a search, who has shaved their gas door on an eg hatch?
I am buying a 1992 civic vx and it has a shaved gas door on it and had a fuel cell in the hatch area. I would like to put a stock fuel tank back in it but dont want to have to reopen the gas door location. Does anyone have any ideas as to locate the filler behind the drivers side taillight? Pics would be helpful and any links I could get would be great. Thanks in advance.

kinda hard to do when you have a tailgate on hatch. i vote behind the tail light as well.

Use a fuel door hinge on the backside of the taillight, you will have to fab it up a bit, and make new fule tank lines...It isn't taht hard to do at all.

I bought a civic shell with a setup like that. I'll try and take pictures of it when I get a chance.
what do most people use to fab up the tank lines? The previous owner of the car used a metal pipe and clamped that to the fuel tank inlet. That's about half of the line where the other half is just a thick rubber hose clamped to the 1st pipe. Is this good enough or should I make a new metal fuel tank line that goes all the way to the filler, what would someone suggest I do?
