WILL FLY Posted September 29, 2003 Share Posted September 29, 2003 Fred Can you give me some dimensions of the actual cap, the diameter of the hole centres for fixing and the overall diameter of the surround. I've had a look at the Think website and am not sure which size of cap it is or whether its a custom size. I curently have on of the caterham option aero style fillers which is naff and uses a round key like a bike 'D' lock. I'd be interested in an upgrade if the fixing holes were the same.

WILL FLY Posted October 3, 2003 Share Posted October 3, 2003 Tony, seeing as Fred hasn't asked my questions, can you read my post above and do some measurements for me.

Fred Posted October 3, 2003 Author Share Posted October 3, 2003 wILL FRY i sent you a email with the answers you asked.days ago. I doubt the holes will be the same 🤔 the diameter is 100mm or 4in for the outer ring . Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Harry Flatters Posted October 3, 2003 Share Posted October 3, 2003 Will Fly, I can tell you that the fixing holes do NOT match, as the filler you have, if it's the same as mine (the one with round key that gets stuck!) has 8 holes and the new proper aero has 6 holes. Also the PCD of the holes on the new one is smaller . However, with careful placement/drilling you can get the new aero to cover the old ring of 8 holes. Do bear in mind though that the back of this new aero is designed to mate with the rather nasty metal filler neck (from a Mini-Metro think) but then again if you already have the Caterham R500 'round key' version then you must already have the same filler neck.

Harry Flatters Posted October 3, 2003 Share Posted October 3, 2003 I'll do my best but I'm having a bit of a break, DIY-wise at the moment plus I'm not sure how helpful any pic of my rear panel would be since it looks like a bit of Swiss cheese as I have 20 holes - 6 from the rivets of the original Caterham filler, 8 from the R500 filler and 6 from the new one *arrowright*Harry Flatters *arrowright* AKA Steve Mell of Su77on Se7ens and Joint AO - Surrey Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
