MGB 1980 MGB Tail Light Chrome Trim

[Hoosier]

I'm in the process of refurbishing a 1980 MGB, and could use some help. When I acquired the car, there was a piece chrome trim on each tail light/brake light lens, at the point where the lens attaches to the fender. These chrome pieces were broken, so I ordered new lenses (I couldn't find the actual chrome trim pieces in any of the on-line catalogues). Unfortunately, when the new lenses arrived, they did not come with the Chrome Trim. Does anyone know where I can find replacements for these trim pieces? I can find similar trim pieces on Moss Motor's and The Roadster Factory sites for earlier model MGB's (1962-1969) but not for the late model years like my 1980.

Thanks in advance for any help you can provide.

Can you post a picture of the broken one? I might have some in my parts stash.

I should have a bunch around also. I will dig around in a day or so. Bob

Sorry to be so dense, but how do I add a picture to a post?

hit reply, and, at the bottom of the "typing screen" you will see file manager. Follow the instructions. Your file can't be bigger than 100k

If you are in the middle of a topic like this there is a Switch to advanced editor at the bottom. You will need to go there to find the file manager as stated above. It can be a bit trickey to add a pic at first. Hang in there and keep trying. Bob

Paul,

That's exactly what I need. Do you (or does anyone else) know of someone or a copany where I can buy just that part? I could buy the assembly, but I only need one of those. I'd be willing to buy it.

Thanks again to all for the help.

I believe I have a few of them.

How many you need? and what level of quality?
