Ron, my camper is a 1991 Volkswagen Vanagon GL Campmobile.  The water inlet is black, and has a keyhole.  I have no key.  I can open the inlet door without one (which I suspect was true when the thing was new).  Rarely, it will stick closed.  I use a flat blade screw driver in that case.

How would the Delta Six inlet differ from my original one (or at least I think it is original, I have no reason to think otherwise).
