Smile Aluminum trim instrument cluster knobs!

One thing I've always been disappointed with was the cheap look of the black plastic clock and mileage reset knobs in my Boxster's gauge cluster. Got these aluminum trim replacements, and they look A LOT nicer...

Old knobs just pluck out, and new ones simply press in. I know it's a really minor change, but it does spruce up the look...especially since you see the gauges everytime you drive the car...

Old knobs:


New ones in place:

Thanks...They are crazy $xpensive, and I had to buy them from a company in the UK (link below), but I couldn't stand the cheap look of the stock knobs...just didn't seem right in a Porsche....so I bought em anyway. They do look really nice in the car, and they ship them pretty quickly.
