The TC keys? I'll hold them for a bit I guess. I still have all that A/C stuff you wanted too.

Nope. The stuff I use for the bumpers is custom cut to a specific width. This stuff is way too thin (though it is from the same company, which is how I figured out how to get them to make the right stuff for me).

Michael,

Put me in line for the keys if Vinnie doesn't end up getting them.

But I am only interested in them if they are the factory Ford pieces which are a soft rubberized material.
If they are the aftermarket black hard plastic ones, I'm not interested.

How do you tell the difference? I bought these on eBay back in 03? Guy only sold NOS Ford stuff (like the headlights, door lock plates, and center console plates, etc).

Mike, I think your XR-7 centercaps may be for the polycast wheels on the earlier models. I could be wrong, though.

Polycasts? Can you guys tell from pics? They are 4-lug and have the lug holes, peaked center, and say "XR-7" on them in the middle.

On the keys, all of my "old" keys are so used up/dry rotted/grease encapsulated that metal would look like soft rubber! How soft are NOS and how hard is the aftermarket ones? (I didn't even know they made aftermarket ones!)

If they are new factory rubber ones, they will be "soft" to the touch and more of a charcoal gray in color.
The aftermarket hard black ones are just that, hard black plastic.
Can you post up a clear close up picture of them?

EDIT: Take a close look at the top of the of the head, on one side near the keyring hole. Do they have "Canada" imprinted in them?
