Here are the differences I noted in the reproduction components, the bezels were very nice, however the components were not close in many aspects.
In other words save the grilles backers etc and use them they are much nicer than reproduction. (Everything is Aluminum so it can be re-anodized fairly inexpensively.)
Original .040 Aluminum wire brite anodized
Repro - .035 Stainless Wire not plated or polished
Reproduction at off angle
Original backer is Anodized Aluminum -- Reproduction is black vinyl over steel
