    I got my online order from O'Riley's today
    This is what came. Think this is the correct cap.
    IMG_20220120_162430__01.jpg IMG_20220120_162520__01.jpg

    I took a few pictures of this one and the counterfeit product I had that was past the return window.
    The one from O'Riley's is on the left and the questionable one on the right in theses photos.
    Just so others might know how to better spot a definite fake. IMG_20220120_164008__01.jpg IMG_20220120_164109__01.jpg IMG_20220120_164147__01.jpg

    You can see no raised S on the fake one, the box is bigger, different SKU under the Barcode, Print on the label is different and not as clear, print on the fake cap isn't white, key on the fake one is plastic too, the real one is all metal. The seals even look different. The one I got online from O'Riley's looks exactly like the one @GrizzledBastard posted that he got at his local O'Riley's store that worked for him. Mine is on the truck now, hopefully this 3rd cap will be a keeper.

    Edit: still working fine, no codes
    Edit: Still working great after 2 years, just make sure you turn it till it clicks

    Not enough bandwidth on the internet to list.
    The other telltale is the plastic cover on the key. My counterfeit was the same way. The guys at the store had seen this on other caps, too. It's unusual.

    The green Locking Stant cap I had on my Liberty CRD had an all metal key too, no plastic. That did seem not right to me. This one looks correct.

    Edit:

    The cap I got shipped from O'Reilly's has been working great, no codes or anything just tighten it 3 clicks, and good to go.

    If there is no O'Reilly's locations near you they ship orders over $35 for free.

    So, I tried 3 different locking gas caps 10504 from the following locations and ALL gave me a Check Engine Light (CEL):

    AutoZone
    Advance Auto
    Napa

    I put the original gas cap back on and waiting for the CEL to clear.

    In the meantime I discovered the remote start feature (App & FOB key) will start up the truck but will cut off after less than a minute. I tried it 3 times; 2 with App and once with FOB key.

    I figured it is PROBABLY because of the CEL fault because when I'm inside the truck and push-button start, the engine does not cut-off.

    Just an FYI. Mornings are a little cold right now so remote starting (10 min run then auto shutoff) helps auto defrost the windshield/warm up engine and by the time I leave for work, my truck is ready to roll.

    So, yeh I do have some random locking gas cap on my 2013 Tacoma. Works fine for past 3+ years, no CEL ever. It can be done.

    My cap looks exactly like the one in the upper most pic with the S....same for the lower 2 on the left. Hadn't had an issue in 2 years now.

    My Stant Locking gas cap arrived today...along with 2 other items I bought to get free shipping.

    STA 10504 - $15.99
    Long reach Pliers - $15.99
    Engraver - $7.99

    I will install today and make sure it clicks 3 times and report back.

    The other caps usually generated CEL after 2 days.

    there is one about 35 miles from me. what you say above works fine in the 48 states but us outliers in HI & AK are out of luck.
    and shipping to here would be more than the cap. i will have to wait until i do my once a month costco run to get it, cutting way back on driving due$$$$
    looks like it is $16.

    Unfortunately, that was one of the setbacks to living on Oahu/Hickam AFB from 1999-2003...having products mailed/shipped from the 48 contiguous states.

    Back then, I had never owned a new Toyota...only new Hondas.

    I've since tanked up my truck at least 3 times from the Feb 12, 2022 install--I try to fill-up before getting to 1/2 tank. No problems with check-engine light!

    I keep the key in my center console. Adding this little divider helps!

    I didn't think about that but you're right they would always change more for shipping outside of the 48 states.

    So far my cap has been good no CEL

    I guess I have been putting my cap on wrong. I just turn till I hear 1 click.

    Just got back from O Reilly's and this was what I got. I had them check 2 other boxes and they were all the same.. its the correct part number so I bought one anyways. Let's see what happens in a hundred miles. The other one I got off of eBay set off the cel light in an hundred miles. Also same part number just looked different also. This one from O Reilly's was made in Mexico, don't know if it makes a difference. Worst come to worst I'll just return it..

    i would like to hook up a sensor switch to the door for the gas cap that works in concert with my FOB that when the truck is locked and someone opens the gas door the alarm goes off. i guess a bit too much to wish for but would be cool.
    maybe Messo!
