Repair peeling console switches for convertible top up, down and heated seats.

Hello,
The convertible down switch in the switch cluster in my center console has peeled down to the plastic substrate (no paint). Is there a fix, replacement or decals I can place?

If not, where can I find center console removal instructions? My intention is to replace the switch cluster (?) I guess.

Thanks.

Funny (well, not really) but this just happened to me as well. ~$250 part, I've got to see if possibly its covered under extended warranty....

Mine too; top dowm is just a big white piece of plastic. For €250 I prefer getting myself something else; I'll just paint them black and put a decal on it to remind me which is which.

I found these on eBay. I have not ordered any and don’t know anything about them.

I think the problem with these stickers is that they would obscure the red light that comes on when the roof malfunctions.

It seems they have the translucent section for that... Besides, it also shows on the dash if there's a failure. Seems like it is worth a try.
