    Seat Rail Restoration Source

    Anyone have a source that will make the silver sliding seat rails look like new or better yet has anyone done it themselves. Searched here but couldn't a thread on this subject.

    Don't forget to replace the stupidly expensive little plastic guides on the rails. They make a huge functional difference when they are fresh.

    Looks like Stoddard has fixed the stupidly expensive part of my comment. These things were like $20 each a few years ago!
