You could probably go to the dealer to get them, but I just bought mine online from autotrucktoys.com.

For the guys who're into chrome, a new mustang pulled up next to me and theirs were chrome, round and looked to be about the same size. I know Grant already did his in silver and it looks very good, but since he and I'm guessing others like chrome. For those that aren't the "do it yourself" type, but want silver or chrome it might be an option. Obviously check first to make sure they'd fit, but they looked like they would.

Ah c'mon, it's so easy a cave man can do it. I aint no Dutch Boy, but I figured it out. Just do very light coats and you won't get any runs.

Hmm, I was wondering if there was a vehicle with same size chrome vents. I really like my sliver ones, plus painting them was cheep but I might have to check ebay on this one.
