    The fuel door on my gen 2 prius has a broken spring. It's not the clip...its the spring. It has been very stiff..
    Anyone know what parts I should be looking for? Wasn't able to do a good search of prius chat.

    The spring that pushes the door open?

    In my gen 1, I was able to buy that part on its own from Toyota and put it in. It was clip-shaped. I'm not sure if gen 2 is different.
