    Does anyone know of a quality substitute for the chrome on any of the plastic bits that cover some of the parts on the XJ's? I'd like to bring back the shine on my Speedo & Tach buckets to make them look new again.

    Thanks

    In major cities, the "stereo" croud can hook you up.
    They can chrome or gold plate plastic and metal.
    Go to any place that sells 18 inch speakers and 1,000 watt amps.
    Don't forget the 24's
