Thank you Gents most helpful as always.

Bob, yes I saw the "Pennys" and guessed this was the purpose, luckily these are still intact and of good condition.

As my truck is a mid production early 11/12 cab I don't have the need for the door restraint straps as I'd like to keep to the original format as far as practical, and one less job! The rubber side lights might need to be a necessity.

I'm not too keen on the Mac repro curtain rod locators as there appear to be chrome, the other issues will probably lead me to speak with my machinist to see if they can be cut from a solid bar of aluminum. Of the course the hole will need to be round instead of the original square hole, I think casting will be out of the question. Like yourself I only have the one good one.

I'll let you know how I get on.

Cheers,


Paul
