No chrome on the tail lights?

 

[Teck]

They will have chrome rings around them when they are installed.
Haven't been able to find any with chrome on them. I do have the aftermarket one with chrome but am looking for a good used set with good chrome that I could polish and put on the new plastic. It's just tabs that bend around the lens that holds it on.

 

[Teck]

Took out driving around today.
Got some new pics.

Thanks, and I hope the NOS stuff makes it that much better.
I know I will feel better about it.

Changed all the vents today with new nos vents and headlight knob.

That sounds like the opposite of fun.

Wasn't that bad.

Also put a new license plate light lens on.

Good stuff! You had to pull the dash pad to put the vents in right?

Yes.
