Instrument cluster chrome rings ?

Hi,

Noticed that the 3 chrome rings on my instrument cluster trim are all broken.

Can they be bought separately or do I need to buy the entire trim piece ?

Thanks for your help.

Odd that all 3 are broken (I've never even seen just one broken before).

There is NO part number for the individual rings.
Part number for the panel is 1706800336. Should not be too hard to find one that has 3 good rings for a reasonable price (if you find a panel that is the wrong color or in poor condition you can swap the rings over). They are not particularly hard to remove/install intact (I recently removed all 3 to paint them black .... shown below).

hope that helps,
Chris
