marker light trim
So sick of losing the little trim pieces somewhere along the road!
I've re-glued using everything from silicone, gorilla glue, epoxy & some wicked 3M stuff (that did last a few months), but nothing holds long term. I really like the OE look, but this billet options would eliminate the headache. https://allamericanbilletstore.com/1...let-bsml-dw-b/ Has anybody used these billet options in black? I'm looking for a pic installed. I really wished somebody made these billet in black but with the trim part machined to show aluminum so more closely matched OE look.

Re: marker light trim
I've never lost any of the stainless steel hoops from the deluxe marker lamps in 35 years. I would be looking to get a NOS Guide lamp assembly to solve your issue once and for all.

Re: marker light trim
I found if any are loose, I take them off and with a pair of pliers, I squeze the backs just a tad to make them tighter and put them back on. If they feel a little bit loose yet. I repeat the process until I have to force them on. I haven't lost one yet.
