I did it. Mine popped right out, it doesn't thread in or anything. Got the new one at the dealer for $6, but it fit real loosely, so I JB Welded it on there

thanks. My whole thing looks like an add for jb weld. My plug striped out so I thaught oh I'll just drill and then retap the threads well that didn't work so I put jb there than I drill a whole thruogh the cover and yesterday away from everything I lost the plug so I had to jb that too so I could get home and that's when I broke the thing. Gonna manufacture something up tomoorow and change the plastic peice. Thanx
