Worn buttons

Post by Sixth » Mon May 13, 2024 2:36 pm

Hi. The roof open and roof close buttons in my car have worn down to mainly white. They still work fine but are unsightly. I've seen stickers available for these on ebay. Has anyone used these and do they stick? Thanks for any advice.

I've seen the transfer type, I even bought some for testing from the guy on ebay (absolutely condescending prick), but decided not to bother as the replacement switch covers are now available.
So I made a video on those instead....

Loads available on Aliexpress (same as the more expensive ones on ebay) and far better than a transfer that you then have to varnish or some sticker that's going to rub clear very quickly.
Hope that helps :thumbsup:

I have looked at these as mine are also worn. Loads on AliExpress from about £15 each
