A couple radios I've picked up recently have the thin plastic dial covers that have really yellowed. Is there a place to order replacement covers? If so, how would they be attached? The old ones aren't glued or screwed in; they have those tiny metal punches - sorry, not sure what the proper term is.
Thanks,
Ryan

The PhilcoRadio.com Resources page:
http://www.philcoradio.com/resource.htm
gives you a couple options - one vendor who sells them, and a way to make your own if you wish.
