nice info jeg, how about those chrome lids. I dont think the repop looks as the original. desgn for the outer lip or something not quite the same? I have an extra one of these & it is in about the sameshape as my original (scratches & a few very light pits) has anybody had these rechromed & if so, how did it turn out & @ what $$ costs $$. maybe, a bunch of us could get our lids togeather, and send them in for bulk rechrome
