Question Stupid question - oil cap?

Hey, guys -
As some of you may know, I am building my P5 to be a sleeper of sorts. That means no exterior dress-up. But under the hood is fair game. Anyhow, when I stop into Pep Boys or Autozone to pick up oil filters and such, I often notice APC aluminum oil caps for Honda and Toyota. Do you know if any of these are similar enough to the Mazda oil cap? There is no unique Mazda part, from what I've seen. (Yes, I've seen the fake "Mazdaspeed" ones on E-bay, but I want an anodized red one to match the strut tower brace). Any help you can provide is much appreciated.

I believe (do a search) that the Honda oil cap does fit our engine...

just ask them if you can take a few outside and test them on your car, thats what my friend did and they had no problem letting him (one of the employee's walked out with us)....
