    Hi guys,

    Along with fighting with wheel size, I am working on my interior.

    My climate control is all cracked and not legible when light shines through.

    What is a good source for a new one?

    The only one's I keep seeing is wood grain and I need black. Otherwise I have to buy a whole kit for $60.00.

    Thoughts? Common fixes?

    Thanks!

    There was a thread on the board that had an eBay dealer with black and chrome plates. You may be able to do a search for it

    Just an update.

    I went with the eBay face plate. As far as I can tell all of these face plates are basically vinyl printed or cut. I feel that the price of all of these is a little steep for what they are but the eBay version seems like the least risk. In this case I am at least potentially helping somebody collect a few bucks to work on that project.

    The seller was very quick to get back to me with some questions that I had. I will try to take before and after pics.

    I think the cheaper one is just a decal, I don't believe they illuminate like original. the others actually allow light thru to light it up.
    Thats the difference
