Spruces up the boring black console. Parts are available thru Mazda. I wish the audio knobs were available in silver

[Jeff-TheBiz]

Excuse me while I check the vehicles in the showroom....

Weren't you here like 20 mins ago???

[yearoftherat]

lol...yeah I was...I won't be held accountable for any parts missing off the showroom cars

[JonsMazda]

hahaha....busted! :P

[Xerox]

Am I the only one that can't see what the difference is?
I refreshed a few times so I'm pretty sure the page is loading correctly.
Maybe the color on my LCD isn't so good??

It's like those games where you have to find one little thing that's different in two very similar pics!

[yearoftherat]

I'll give you 3 guesses John

[Xerox]

The climate control knobs!
It's kinda hard to tell on my screen...it looks like just different lighting...gotta see it in person to get a better idear.

[yearoftherat]

Yeah!! Thanks to Joe for the parts !!!

[Skarbro]

How much?

[yearoftherat]

See below

[FLIPDADY]

How much?
Disregard that last PM.

$40 full retail.:)

[yearoftherat]

Sorry bout that Joe

[FLIPDADY]

Sorry bout that Joe
No need to be sorry Chris. I was referring to my PM to Skarbro on the price.

You paid less than $40. That's the TM3 price I just can't remember the exact price of the top of my head.:chuckle

[yearoftherat]

Ahh I thought it was me...:blush
BTW thanks for the photocopies too

[Wild Weasel]

This would actually be a rather difficult mod for me...

Hmmm.. $40 is the TM3 price? Or the price that YOTR posted before (I remember what it was before he edited it. :chuckle)

Yeah but you guys can't stick your heads through the roof. :P

[MattC]

damn climate control, what have you ever done for me but NOT allow me to mod you?!?!

:chuckle

[WLS ZMZM]

and here i thought replacing the grill was a super easy mod

[ArManI]

took me 5 minutes, scroll up/scroll down to compare closely, slowly, detailly the two pictures, and still can't find the difference... (i intentionally not reading the last line of description and wanted to find out wut has been changed...and i failed) took another 1 min to closely focus on those knob, then realize... ah! the color is shinnier/different~
*_*|||

[Cardinal Fang]

I wonder how easy it would be to paint those knobs to match my copper red?

[Wild Weasel]

I can't believe climate control knobs are suddenly the talk of the town here.

I feel like I've time warped back to j-body land circa 2001. :chuckle

[bluntman]

Meh!

[MPS]

Meh i don't know about you but my Minispeed has a roof in the back seat :chuckle



Yeah but you guys can't stick your heads through the roof. :P

EZ as pie, You can buy the colour coded spray at Car Quest or NAPA (pickering location, maybe you could get it on this years vacation. LOL)
Get the primer and clear coat and you are laughing. Only problem is it will cost like $80 for the supplies. I would make it part of a bigger paint project to justify it. That said, it would go nice with the other interior stuff you painted.

[Skarbro]

Just did this "mod" today. I literally did it in 30 seconds. I stopped in to see Joe to pick them up. Cheaper than I thought! Thanks YOTR for the idea. It seems like such a trivial thing, but it really does enhance the look of the dash in person. Great mod for the money.

[yearoftherat]

UR welcome.....yeah its such a little thing but hey I like it. Actually there are other members (Joe, Jeff ) that did the mod before I did...I just posted it up to let everyone see.

[yearoftherat]

BR5S-61-191

sold as individuals

[cereal83]

I don't have knobs like that and they still look the same, maybe because of the flash. lol

[yearoftherat]

How do you replace them?

grasp the part that you use to make the temp adjustments and pull out.

[zoomette]

wow....My eyes hurt trying to figure out the difference......It looks like a lighting difference....need to see in person

[yearoftherat]

lol..its like those 3d pictures you gotta look at a long time before you can see it

[dentinger]

hmm... this just gave me an idea to paint some of my interior parts sunlight silver, to match my car

[ParsM3GT]

I did this last week. I bought three of them for about $25 all together from Mazda of Brampton. :)

[Gizzmo_jr]

my 07 came stock with them? It's just "arm" part right thats silver, not the whole "background".

Thats correct.
