MT Need help with this truck/van FM radio part: the chrome "face" anyone have a spare? - The 1947 - Present Chevrolet & GMC Truck Message Board Network

I need to replace a mangled FM radio face plate like the one shown in this borrowed pic. The part is the same for both truck and van FM radios. Anyone have a spare? Thanks, Pete

Here's a BUMP for you, Pete. That's a tough cookie to find, but you know someone has one out there.

I had my last one re-chromed. I can't tell from the pic if yours is too pitted.

Thanks guys! The above pic is a borrowed one of another face.

The bad one I have was hacked apart (literally) and "might" be usable but would need the lens glued into place and has the supports that abut the dash trimmed such that only the cups would be supporting the radio. It's amazing what people do sometimes.
