    I can't really decide if I like it or not! I guess it's like most things in life.. different strokes for different folks.

    I do appreciate the engineering involved, and as expected your installation is second to none!

    And I certainly thank you for making time for all the pics / write-up AND videos to boot! You're to kind!

    I've gotta admit, my first reaction was "Why does this need to be powered?", but then I thought about the option, having it spring loaded closed and the spring weakening over time so that he bezel assembly doesn't close tight. Powered seems to be a good idea for firm closure. For sure it will slow down the kids wanting to siphon gasoline.....

    Do kids today even know how to siphon gasoline?? Even if they did, what are the odds that this thing will ever be parked where they could get to it?
