    Rear Quarter Window latches for early SWB

    Mine have pitting and are in need of either replacement or restoration. I went through several reputable vendors and their offerings all show inadequate metal prep prior to chroming.

    Anyone have excellent ones for sale?

    FWIW, I have had hundreds and hundreds of those things and have yet to find one that wasn't pitted in some way.

    I know, Jim you are so right. I tried all the usual sources and ..... really?!

    All have left over sanding marks etc. Trash re-pops

    Hoping to find a good set.

    I also have a set but they are also slightly pitted.. Being in the restoration business, you should just have them re chromed ..
