SLING TSI COMPATIBLE

Somehow an FBO managed to lose a gas cap for my G3 SR22T so I was suddenly in need of a replacement. This model is a perfect fit. One note, youll likely have to manually reposition the plastic ring in order for it to fit, something that isnt obvious when you look at it, but if you compare it to another one that fits youll see the difference.

As Robert says, all Cirrus gas aircraft use these 300 series fuel caps. Do not understand Jasons problem. Re locks, replacement numbered locks are often available so as to match an older one. Just quote the number required and request a replacement lock. eg 615.....
