Default Chrome door locks.
OK, I was browsing the net the other day when I came across these chrome door lock's for our f-body's. I could have sworn I saved this site as a favorite, but now I can't find it. Anybody see's them could you pm me the link? These with the ac ***** would be subtle and classy, imho.

1) i didnt realize those existed

2) it makes sense; id say caddy

3) dont like it; but in an interior with A LITTLE polished accent, would be a nice touch.

I'm thinking those with the chrome ***** in a Z28 (no dash kit) might look good.

if you wanted em that bad couldnt you take the stock ones out tape off the orange section and get that chrome paint and spray since you would have to take them out to put the new ones in and if there not metal then wouldnt after a while they have the same effect as the ones you paint with the paint chipping with the heat and cold weather unless you store the car? just a thought

I could have but I saw them on this website once and imagined someone on here could help me out. So far I've been the only help I've found and you can see how long it took me to figure out what car they were even in. Everyone else just keeps saying junkyard. You know how many vehicles Cadillac/Buick/Pontiac/GMC/Oldsmobile made in the 90's? I don't either so I wanted to at least have a starting point.

also theyre high wear parts, generally the factory pieces would hold up better with time (especially if theyre actually metal, obviously)
