Headliner Chrome Trim

Has anyone found a vendor (source of supply) for the above that is actually metal and not chrome plated plastic?

I hate buying plastic parts!

TIA,
Randy

The OEM pieces in pickups were plastic too.

Re: Headliner Chrome Trim

It just snaps in. I'm glad that this is reproduced. Mine was brittle as all get-out and broke when I took it out to remove all the wires my FIL had run into it (CB, speakers). Gotta replace that old holy headliner, too.

Re: Headliner Chrome Trim

I only know of reproductions. If there is a metal upgrade I'd love to know about it.

Has anyone successfully removed the original trim so it can be reused? I changed my interior from blue to saddle a few years ago and left the blue headliner till the truck gets restored. I'd like to change it, have everything I need, but don't want to use the new trim for temporary and don't want to dye a nice original blue headliner. Anyone?
