Does anyone have some advice of restoring the chrome surround trim and hinges for a pair of Mk 1 rear rear side windows.
I have a pair in need of attention and any info or recommendations of restorer's in the Manchester area would be much appreciated.

Many thanks

Ever thought of turning them round and fitting them on the other side? The inside chrome of the frames is usually in MUCH better shape. It's also amazing what a brand new Stanley blade and a bit of scotchbrite will do for cruddy chrome frames!
