Gamewell box parts needed

Does anyone know where i can obtain a key cover. The key cover is the ribbed type, the one that i have broke and i would like to replace it. I'v seen them on ebay, and also how hard are they to replace?
Next i'm looking for someone who makes the medal box tags with the raised numbers. I'v tried an engraving store but they won't touch it. Anyone have suggestions or can i be pointed in the right direction. This is for a restoration project. I really don't want to use the plastic box tags as it will not look right on a Pat 1924 box.
Thanks

You occasionally see the bee hive key hole covers on ebay. No one makes stamped number plates. Your only choice is to wait and watch if you want to match a code wheel you already have. The other choice is to buy a matched set from a dealer. Ebay or attend a FD flea market like Allentown PA, Cleveland OH, Jackson MI, or any other show specifically geared towards fire stuff is another choice. What code wheel number are you trying to match ?
