cheers RET.... I'll give em a call

Russ, I'll try rares but if you find out they're in good nick then i'll knock off yours.... i'll wait to buy from either of you till you get back to me. The ones I have are just to much effort and i'd like an easier job!

The father in law had a look tonight (in the dark) he says "they're all there" but the left side needs re doing, He didn't see any rust but will have a closer look in the daylight

Neither, they were Cadmium plated which is a dull silver colour.  Same finish as bonnet hinges etc.

managed to pick these up for less than a carton and they looked like they had cancer everywhere. You can see the one that I haven't touched.
Ran em over the sander and they came up pretty good. I think they'll look good chromed

had one with a pin hole of rust though in the drivers side rear, so if any one has a cheap one laying around...
