You'll need to find someone who's parting out an early 300A to get all the necessary components.

I found a 2003 Silver Birch in a junkyard and the gas cap was still there. I can go back this weekend if you let me know. Plus give me details of all the stuff you want so i can make sure its all there.

I love my 300A for this and many other reasons over later models.

The early build '03 Grand Marquis also have the release type fuel door... My '98LS Grand Marquis doesn't have it but my '93GS(base model) did...

I swapped out the center dash strip for one with a clock in my '04.

Adding the remote release fuel door.

Adding the automatic parking brake release.

Looking to add the front seat map pockets also.

The remote release fuel doors were on many Panthers from 92 and up. You could probably find all the parts you need at the yards for the mechanism and button, and then you'd just need to get a matching door.

It would probably be easier than trying to find a donor Marauder with those parts. Start with the 03 GM's for the closest matches.

I'm also glad my car has this feature. I guess later cars have a finger "edge bump" huh? Plus, just anybody can steal your gas with exceptional ease. The only downside is when you pull in to get gas and pop the trunk by accident.:o
