Fuel cap spring replacement?
Discussion
Can anyone help with where to find a replacement spring for my fuel cap?

My local Mazda dealer here in Vienna didn't have any and said they don't think they are sold anymore which I don't believe, they also said its a complete unit with the silver parts which just seems silly if true!

I should have looked more closely on MX5 Parts website as I just found exactly what I needed there!
I had already looked through the site at the sections I thought it would be in, but didn't check the fuel system section in the service menu, so just in case it helps any others searching for this part, here's the link:
