    Most vehicles have an arrow next to the fuel gauge that tells you which side the gas cap is on. Of course ours isn't in the 'most vehicles' category.

    I've got 2 vehicles with gas cap on driver's side & 3 vehicles with it on the passenger side. Only 2 of the cars have that indicator.

    I always thought that it was a nice feature (especially since it doesn't cost the manufacturer anything to include it).

    As to the fuel filler door side being indicated with an arrow, if there is no arrow, the convention is that the gas cap is on the side that the nozzle is on the little pictogram of a gas pump. As it's on the right side of the pump on the vx's pic, that means it's on the passenger's side of the vehicle.

    Rodeos are the same way. Even the aftermarket gauge faces copied it.
