Anyone know if these chrome screw covers are original? They are corroded and I’d like to find replacements.

If I recall correctly, they are a Ford or a Chrysler part. Take it to an auto parts store and see if they can dig it up (don't tell them it's from a plane). If you post this in the Cessna Pilots Society forum, someone will probably know exactly (and might even have extra to sell you).
 
That's funny. I thought only Piper used auto parts. :)

My Cherokee has VW door handles, a Studebaker window crank for the trim handle, and Harley Davidson foot pads. All but the HD foot pads were original equipment but I couldn't bring myself to pay $76 each for the Piper ones. The Harley Davidson pads are a perfect match from the originals, right down to the molding marks in the rubber and they cost less than $3 each.
