lindatr4 Posted February 11, 2022 Report Share Posted February 11, 2022 I am looking to respray the steel escutcheons on the overdrive and indicator stalks. Were the originals gloss or matt? I'm guessing gloss to match the steering wheel boss. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
RogerH Posted February 11, 2022 Report Share Posted February 11, 2022 Wow, you have steel ones. They are now only available in plastic. Gloss black. Moss etc do the transfers for the indicator. Roger Quote Link to post Share on other sites

Stuart. I guess you're right. Not willing to risk destroying them. Certainly don't want plastic replacements. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
