Exactly! Diesel is rated in cetane (ability TO burn). Gasoline is measured in octane (RESISTANCE to burn.)

Something like this maybe ?

I've known about this difference for a while, even our cars have the hole on the fuel door peg, but no actuator/relay or harness (and most likely missing some BCM programming).

Yep...when they find the can't siphon the gas they get mad and pour water in your tank. Its why we need locking caps. Not like todays society is producing angels.

Rock Auto has this but they are saying it won't fit. I am ordering it, because you say it will fit.
