Do you have pics of the ones you want to replace? I have a set, but I'm not sure if I want to get rid of them. They are spares for my 76

Hi Buddy,

have you thought about having them rechromed? Probably a little more than 30 each to do, but they will look brand new...good luck...

Thanks for everyone's efforts!

I was able to get my hands on 2 of round chrome ball vents today that are in much better shape than the ones I had, but still looking for something in a little better condition. For now I will be installing the new used set I have but if someone has a set of NOS I would happy to make a deal.

BTW - To have old round ball vents re-chromed are $35 plus shipping and I heard from other people that the new plastic chrome re-plating will not hold up as well as the original coating, whether or not that is true I don't know?

Thanks again!!

Mike G
