You would be surprises how many times you might want to raise or lower the volume. Anyway, the small clone type buttons look clean but are less functional than the ****. Dennis told me that the Kenwood unit and that volume **** would be in my best interest, he also told me that he guaranteed I would be happy with the **** or he would take it back. He also said he was 100 % sure I would like it, even though I wasn't sure.. I just went on his advice and knowledge. He was right.
Or you can do the C6 steering wheel mod and get buttons on the wheel

Dont get a flip out, I think they look tacky and not remotely OEM. +1 on DD mods for the bezel, updating just a few things made the cabin feel much more modern.
