Do I need to buy an OEM green cap or are the cheap ones for $6-7 from IPD and FCP Groton okay?

Thanks for any help!

38 bucks is pretty bad for a cap, I'd probably go for say 20 bucks, so in this case, if they have the green one for 7 bucks, I'd buy 2, if this were my get to work car, and throw one in the glove box for when it screws me over.... Just my couple of cents worth. Mike

The FCP or IPD green one is OK. But call the dealer and ask parts for a price, no shipping. Hard to believe they want $32.

Update:

Local stealership wants $38 for one.

I almost dropped the phone...
