Gang,
The headlight switch knob has started to disintegrate in my '97 hoe. It was kinda grimy looking, so I rubbed it with my finger and the rubber/plastic pretty much started to crumble. Yuck!!!

What are my options for replacing it with something a little cooler? Billet? I don't want to go gangbusters with a full interior billet kit, but if I had to replace my climate control knobs too it wouldn't kill me :naughty:

Do those knobs just pull off? Then slide the new ones on?

Paint it? It's crumbling like old dry PlayDoh! In fact, I kind of remolded it a bit after I messed it up the first time... No, it's beyond repair, time for new :)

i believe they just pull straight off. billet replacements would look killer.
