Climate control Buttons, falling out

Post by Horizon » Fri Nov 23, 2012 8:32 pm

Hi all
I replaced the blue and red temperature up/down buttons earlier this year. There is a guy in Germany who sells replacements ( Ebay ) but recently all the buttons on the left side of the climate control panel are very loose, and its only time until one gets lost.
I think I made them worse by removing the unit everytime I take out my head unit.
I have loked on Ebay, butthey are asking 10 quid a piece for replacements has anyone any other idea of where to source them.
Cheers

Hi, thanks for the reply. I am after the 4 in the first photo, ( screen, face,feet directional arrows and the auto buttons ) they are a tenner each on Ebay.
If you are interested in selling yours PM me please.
mine are working, but if I ever get the vac out to clean the interia, I will be fishing around in the hoover bag for them after.
Thanks, Pete
