Default Billet Radio *****, where?

So, one of my radio **** is about to break. Perfect time to upgrade to some billet ***** but I can not find them for sale!!

I do see ones for the C6, does anyone know if these will fit? Or where I can find a vendor who sells the correct *****?

Thank you for your help.

Sui

I have some on my old HU I removed during my system upgrade. I gave them a dull satin finish by using some scotch-brite as I didn't like the polished look. They're up in the attic just sitting with the old unit - anybody want them for $25 shipped?

The plastic ones from the dealer list for $10 ea. 2/$20. So, $30 for 2 billets doesn't sound too far out of line.

The HVAC ***** are over 30 bucks a peice. I don't have dual climate control so I have 3 of those. I wanted to replace one because it was damaged... to replace 3 would have been over 100 bucks!

Wish there was an aftermarket option for those out there...

The two ***** listed by SSINSERTS for the HVAC are for the C60 HVAC (auto) system only. The three ***** used by the CJ2 HVAC (manual) are completely different and don't appear to be offered by them.
