Creating Clear Climate Control Knobs

Skill Level Step-By-Step Instructions
Easy
  1. Remove the knobs from the climate control panel.  Simply pull the knobs straight off (they may be stiff, but they will come!).

  2. Use the hair dryer to heat the glued edge along the backside of the knob.  You will see that the knob is clear, but has a grey vinyl covering over it.

  3. After heating, simply pry along the edge of the circumference of the knob, prying the grey vinyl away from the clear plastic.

  4. Once removed, you may wish to paint the knobs.  If you apply a light coat, the light will shine through and illuminate the knob.
