    I just bought new square frames for the center console as the color on mine have run from some previous owner cleaning them improperly. How do you remove the turn dial on each to replace the frames? Do you have to remove the center console and get to them from underneath? Any help would be appreciated. Thank you.

    Regards,

    Josh

    The set screw appears to be a very small allen head. Does anyone know what size it is? Thank you.

    Please tell me where you got those!!!
    I've been looking for them for a while now.

    You don't have to remove the console. There's a small set screw that holds the knobs on. Removing them allows access to a nut that you need to undo. The frames will then lift off. IIR.
    Thanks,
    Will

    the set screws that hold the knobs to their shafts require a 1.5mm allen key. i hope you don't
    end up hating yourself for removing them.
    there is insufficient shaft engagement inside the knob and the set screw barely catches the top
    of the shaft, setting up a potential deformation of the shaft head and inability to turn the shaft
    without the knob screwing off. after that, you can't turn the blowers off without a hemostat or
    pair of pliers. good luck and pay attention!

    The yellow one is on backorder... probably have them here in about 15 days. Blues are here (for now!)

    We also have the cigarette frame... I need to take some pictures this afternoon.
