Karl;
Watch for the wires going into the IF cans, those go bad as well. Sleaving might be the easiest way, as you can't really get the can back on with the rest still mounted in the chassis.
AS for the escutcheon I can't vouch for them, they say that they are 3D printed, so hopefully the finished product will be better from that process then it would have been 5 years ago. Kirk made a small run of them a few years ago, he made a mold from one of the post war ones, but I don't think he has any left.
Regards
Arran
