Hi
A little advice on how to remove ( without damaging) the little plastic arrows on the chrome heater plates..
For purposes of rechroming
..thank you

By chance I have the same question so looking forward to a response.

Also, on the off chance anyone has a spare set of RHD chrome dash (heater) plates, in any conditioner, I would gladly purchase them from you.

I am also looking for the little rosette part that
joins the two pieces…

I rechromed every dash piece years ago.
What I did to remove these small plastic pieces is to carefully pry them off, using picks, razors and tiny flat edge screw drivers. They gave it up pretty easily without much of a fight and no damage.

When it came time to replace them, I glued them back on and they have been there for 23 years now. I don’t recall specifically the glue I use, but it was probably epoxy.

I bought new colored arrows when I rechromed, they were maybe $2-3 each.
