Where to find clutch reservoir cap?

Hi,
Long story short, I left the clutch reservoir cap off my '07 Fit and sitting somewhere under the hood and now it is in a ditch somewhere between Chicago and Madison, WI. Honda only sells the cap with the reservoir. I've scoured the junk yards and have not found a car that uses a similar cap. I've seen some pictures of motor cycle caps online that look similar, but am not sure if they will fit the Fit. Does anyone have any advice as to after-market caps that might work?

much thanks

dunno but a jumbo condom and appropriate band should keep it covered, safe, and happy.

This might work.


OEM Honda Parts & Honda Accessories - Bernardi Honda Parts and Accessories
Otherwise, try them.


Final solution.

Resevoir and cap is only $17. I would just buy it and be done with it. If you do find a cap somewhere it is going to be around $5 anyway. You've probably already spent more time scouring junkyards and searching online to pay for that $10 savings anyway.

Thanks for the replies, serious and otherwise. I think I'll go with the Bernardi option, though the condom option could be fun for getting a reaction from the next person to open the hood.

And brake fluid will "eat" the condom making for a very sticky clean up.
