Has the black on anyone else's radio and center console buttons started to wear off, showing the clear/white underneath? Looking for experience on how I can refinish these, rather than have to replace the complete modules for the NAV screen and the tunnel. Thanks in advance.

Try to contact Eurospares to see if they have a salvaged centre console; alternatively, there is a guy in Cali who specializes in salvaging exotics, maybe he has something on offer. His website is

If fact he has what you need (a bit pricey...) but listed as "navigational system" when in fact is the display unit only

dicolouration of radio buttons

Cant you just pull them off and spray paint using vinal/rubber paint and pop them back on? good luck!

If they dont come off try masking them off and paint with care.

That's a thought...

However you need the proper DIN plug to remove the display unit with extra care; it's very easy to dent/scratch. Then it's the issue of removing the fascia.

Reckon you haveto be good at spraying to let them look as-new, but maybe its worth a try.

Thanks, I've tried some different spray paints and tried to apply in small areas with a q-tip, but can't match the color or texture. I don't think its a DIY, but was wondering/hoping someone may have done this already.
