Default Installation of Mopar Fuel Filler Door
Can anyone tell me if any drilling is necessary to install the Mopar fuel filler door? Before I order it, I wanted to know if it is basically a bolt on replacement to the OEM or would I need to drill holes? (which I don't want to do)
Thanks!

Nope, no drilling required.

bit of a pita to get in there to get the clips released, but it is a simple bolt on otherwise.

Default Don't over tighten
Whatever you do, don't over tighten the screws that connect the fuel door to the housing on the Jeep. They snap easily.
