New Oak Bed wood Question

I have installed the new oak wood bed boards and the gas tank spout did not end up under a full board. So I have to cut an opening and install a door on the deck but right where the stainless hold down strip runs. A round one will not work nearly as well as a square or rectangular shape will. But I am having trouble finding a door of that shape. I did a search but did not find anything.

Does anyone have a source or web site I can find a gas door for the bed tank, any help would be appreciated.

Might I suggest: http://www.streetrodhq.com/detail/16...LMENT_KIT.html

Might help solve your neck in the middle issue - or might not. But something to consider.

Just a suggestion, move the gas cap to the center of a board... It'll drive you nuts everytime you have to look back there if you don't do it now....
