How about black billet climate control knobs with the dash dots on the leading edge...ok, now I'm getting crazy with this stuff...just ignore me.
I thought about asking FJoel about those to, but I didn't want to overload the man.

It would be cool to offer a whole interior dress up kit, grab handles, door handles, climate knobs.

Re: Billet interior door handles, could these be made?

Those are entirely possible as well. I wanted to have a lower profile volume knob on my FJammer too, with a dimple in it like I've had on some stereo's but those I can't make any better. The shaft is too long and the stock one is as low pro as you can get with that shaft.

I think the biggest trick with the climate knobs would be to duplicate the notch/window that allows the light to glow through at night. You could probably just machine out a notch with the same dims as the existing clear plastic window and counter sink a hole on the vertical wall of the machined notch moving back towards the center of the knob. If it was open enough on the backside it might allow enough light to get through to keep the nightime illumination functional.

Hopefully all that made sense.

My next item on the FJoel wish list is shift lever knobs, black with the dots to match the handles and the 4x4 lever ingraved on top like the stock one for gear position.
