wots it called?!paper sticker that covers filler neck screws

help!!!
no idea what this thing is called and local VW dealer not
exactly helpful as obviously its only going to be pennies,but is
pretty essential.
just replaced filler neck,the thing i'm on about is like a circular papery/cloth ring which sticks on the body panel and covers the heads of
the 3 screws holding the filler neck in position where it comes through
the wing.
obviously dimwit here mullered the old one getting it off in a rage.

if any of you have a part number/
know a pattern part

or if one off another model will do,please let me know

muchos gracias

its called the vinyl sticky thing that covers the screws behind the filler cap. :mrgreen:
if it helps you can by the sticky back vinyl sheet from b&q and make your own.

nice idea my friend but you had not reckoned on my
hamfisted destruction of the original to copy..
anyway hopefully its on its way,ordered from main dealers.
besides which i dont have any round-nosed scissors i broke them
making my blue peter Tracy Island  :mrgreen:

ah but i was prepared to measure for you my son.
this is ZEN

i dont want to disappoint matey but…………

when i ordered mine from VW it was a completely different shape, too narrow and looks rubbish.

Hope for your sake it is right

volkswagenstickers.com makes a pretty good vinyl otherwise

AntFme old china you are bang on,the new replacement one looks  - CENSORED - ,its just plain wrong.

Novocaine Oh Zen Master,i shall be headed towards the Nirvana that is
B and Q, whilst spinning my mani wheel and chanting

om mani padme doh!

btw - i also was numnuts enough to order wot one assumed to be the correct screws to refit the bonnet catch in front n/s footwell.now…
wot i end up wiv is two blasted star drive headed self tappers that dont
roody well fit!and this is Whites in Morden!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
maybe they dont care unless i got ?20 000 to spend on a motor,not ?3
