Oi Brian, what you doing here! :D Don’t say you’ve abandoned the register as well :o I notice it’s been a month since the last post over there! ——— only joking, you’re most welcome here. :D

There are some on eBay Brian, if I understand the type you mean but rather expensive I think

They were called "Rimbelishers" if I remember rightly? They were fitted to the Riley 1.5 and probably other models too. I'm not surprised they are expensive now. They were hard to obtain - and moderately costly - when I needed some 30 years ago. They were chrome plated steel, so tended to rust badly. Good luck in your search.

Those on the Traveller look like modern stainless steel trims. Not the type being asked for.
