Gas fill rubber

Something else I need to work on is the rubber that surrounds the gas fill line. I mean the rubber pocket inside the fill door. Mine has a tear and when I fillup, if a little gas spills, it gets in the trunk and stinks up everything.
How are you guys fixing/repairing that pocket?

Centerline sells new filler boots, they are listed for the 105/115 GTV, same boot. I have used this boot, they are a bear to install, it is easier when warm.

Ok, thanks. It sure is nice to have people who have done these things before. It speeds up the learning curve. I appreciate the help!

I called both Centerline and International neither carry the rubber gas fill line boot for the Berlina. Has anyone used one from a 115 Spider or GTV successfully?

Sorry if not clear with previous post. The GTV boot that centerline sells also fits the Berlina, I have purchased and installed several of them. I imagine as bertone cars the original part is the same, The spider boot is different and will not fit the Berlina.
