Rekey a Locking Gas Cap?

Is there such a thing? I can't seem to be able to find any write ups.

There is a locksmith here in New Jersey that re-keyed mine.
Cy Drake Locksmiths
106 Ridgedale Ave.
Morristown NJ 07960
(973) 538-2737
(973) 538-2248- Fax #

Give them a call, I think you can mail them the cap, they'll do it & mail it back.

Now this is a good one. They always are quick on shipping since I live in San Diego.

I re keyed my rear hatch and driver's door without too much problem following the instructions here http://www.928.org.uk/features/75-information-base/56-re-keying-porsche-928-locks.html

Not too difficult and it got me down to one key from three!
