I am redoing the seat on my 59 FL, and am needing to find some of the chrome "surrounds" that the various sized reflectors fit into. These surrounds have tangs that go through the leather and are bent over to hold everything in place. I've got a few that are a bit pitted, and am looking to replace them when I put the new leather on my seat. Might any of you know of a supplier that would have these available?
Thanks!

H-D factory seats for '59 did not have reflectors, so a picture of what you have and are trying to find would be best.

Here are the pictures
Attached are a couple pictures of the seat in question. Any info you can provide as to where I might get the chrome jewel surrounds would be appreciated.

Those are Buco reflectors. I am not aware of any supplier but you should contact Michael at Worsham castle. If they exist he would know about them.
