'51 Frazer Interior images showing the door "Buttons" anyone?

According to the 1949 Parts book, "Standard" Frazer and Kaiser Specials had the plastic; the 492 and 496 models had diecast (chrome metal) buttons.  I cannot put my hands on the 1951 Frazer book I have but would assume that the same carries over for those cars; Manhattans may have chrome, F515 models with plastics.

Jim graciously posted the all the Parts Catalogs on line over the winter.
Here's the '51 Frazer list -

The 1951 Frazer catalog lists only plastic buttons("Button, door remote control push rod, starlight pearl"), part number  204863 for all models - F515, F516.

I've never myself actually seen the plated metal ones in 49-50 KF products as KWZ states, but I will take everyone's word for it that they do exist, and likely, were a sensible replace for the plastic at the time. My 49 Kaiser has the plastic ones, and I have always wondered what I would do if the plastic failed due to age...

To be fair, The only '49s I owned were a Virginian and a Manhattan, so if the Kaiser Specials and standard Frazers had plastic, I will take everyones' word for it.
