    Thanks to OP for heads up on these. Got mine in yesterday, they are what should have been OE. Tactile, don't have to look over or smudge the HU face for adjustment anymore. Bravo Rex.

    Next up, Rex: Think of something clever to do with that useless cubby hole left of the steering wheel. It doesn't have to be functional. I'd like "arm" and "fire" switches for when I'm in traffic.

    I actually sent MESO an idea, but he’s so swamped lately. I think a pull-out drawer would be awesome. It just needs to be a square cup with a curl lip or bump handle. Honda did this for years. Makes the space useful for change, little items, etc. There are already 3 or 4 folks making replacement covers to add more switches in that area.

    Pm sent. Each time I reach for the knobs it drives me crazy how thin they are. I noticed also when my wife does it with lotion on her hands it gets all over the screen.

    Got mine today, thanks a lot Rex! Didn't bother to take a pic, since it'll look the same as everyone else's.. but they're awesome! And just as someone else previously commented, the packaging was great too!

    Love mine! One tip, make sure the two pieces are tightened really well before installing. I've had the aluminum knob unscrew from the plastic back with big temp. change from cold to warm due to expansion and contraction. Maybe even pull apart and add some glue inside?

    My garage door opener fits in it perfectly. Keeps it out of the way. It's angled just enough and has the rubber backing so it never moves.

    Sounds like you need some lights so you can use a switch than.

    Got my replacement knobs and they are amazing. I am not one to mod my truck, but I found the knobs that come on our radios are unusable. Here they are: (Sorry it is pollen season in Georgia)
