Nice
Glad to see it all shined up. I have the same trim and that gives me good idea what mine will look like. What did you use to get the shine back in it?

Re: Ready for a drive
So I took the truck for a drive went to adjust the drivers side mirror I bought reproduction. As soon as I touched it the glass fell out and shattered on the highway. Bought the mirrors
two years ago only about 500 hundred miles on the truck since then. The place I purchased says there is nothing they can do about it. $40 dollars for 500 miles of use. Live and learn.

Oh what I did was removed all the stainless cleaned it up with comet cleaner, water, and an old toothbrush let it dry and used mothers chrome polish on a rag. Not perfect but a lot better
than what it was. What a treat it was removing the stainless broke about 25% of the riveted on clips. Just ordered a clip kit.
