If I understand correctly the lanyards are 23 inches (I have mine some where to measure but haven't). Correct?

The chrome plates on the top of the hood is riveted in. Correct?

Who makes the correct reproductions with rivets?

Yes, 23 inches
No, they are attached with oval headed sheet metal screws. Edit...not sure on a glass AAR hood!
The top plate is stainless steel, not chrome.

Thanks folks, my computer wouldn't wake up this morning and I happenend to be at a show Layson's was at. They had a 23 inch set with rivets, I'll measure them tomorrow to see what size they are and post the name brad tomorrow if I can find one. They look good and of course one of the benefits was they were in front of me. $64 so a little more than I had seen them for but no shipping so it balances out for the most part. THe sheething on the canbles doesn't look absolutely correct (a little thin) but overall good looking pieces. The rivets fit tight in the holes so I was pleased with that.
