All of the hardware coming out of Germany is clear cad or silver Zinc.
We just buy silver ball sockets and plate them.
This adds cost but our cool old cars deserve the small touches.
We generally have a $100 minimum order but call and I'll see what we can do.

We replate all hardware as well. Three step tumbling process to create mirror finish, then send out to a local industrial plating firm that can still do proper yellow cad, or yellow zinc or silver zinc or whatever we need depending on the production years of the cars.

Cheers

Don't bother with the Zinc it doesn't hold up there are many places out there still doing yellow cad it is worth searching for one.

Cadmium has been banned. Big difference between Cadmium and Sodium Dichromates.
