    I got the chain from my first pic because it was the same chain on a new A1 cap

    Here's a pic with the system in use. I overestimated the lengh of chain needed. I actually need to shorten it even more. It only need maybe 4 links

    My TJ had one at some point. I can tell by all the scratches under the fuel filler.
