Default A/C - Heater

The buttons on the a/c controller are looking rough. Can anyone tell me if there is a way to replace the buttons without replacing the entire a/c - heater unit?

Wow, was Edward Scissorhands driving your car?


IIRC, the buttons are internally lighted, and so the worn off areas show up at night too. Is that correct?

I think that little old lady that drove it on Sundays to church had the long fingernails! But she looked good doing it!
Yes, the light shines through at night.

I'm not aware of being able to change the buttons, but you might re-post in C6 General for a wider audience.

You could paint the front of the buttons black, then scrape off a small spot or two to identify which is which.
