I'll be at Sharktoberfest this coming weekend, with my store in the trunk... I'll have door lock overlays and many other neat little things, including an all new product from Germany.

BTW: I carry ALL Jager products - I just did not have time to enter them all into my system. It's a ton of work to do that, with all thel data, variations, and pictures involved. So, if there is anything you want and don't see in my store, always ask.

I think several of the parts places sell those little rings for a few dollars each. I could be wrong, but I'd rather pull out the lock, than paint!

If you find them at a parts place for a few dollars, let us all know. We'll be storming that place in no time...

In addition to the surround, I also installed the keyhole overlay that is included in the Jager kit.

The center piece is optional. AFAIK, the original locks were not black in the center. But if someone likes the look of an all black lock, the piece is part of the kit.

I thought about putting the center piece on the locks, but decided that it wasn't stock appearing that way, and since my keyhead doesn't light up, I figured I'd have problems finding the darn key cylinder at night....

Default Key Hole Trim Durable paint

Anyone have any thoughts on a durable paint for the trim around the door key holes?
Another forum recommended SEM trim paint?

And there were some mention of decal overlays?

Note - if your car is a 78, they are not black, but unpainted polished silver.
