Those are the ones I have and I've started to see if they can be re-produced in aluminum.

I think the shrouds may prove to be too fiddly....

Can I get a guide on how many would like replacement knobs for their heaters, be it Aluminum or 3D printed in plastic, so I have an idea of how much it would cost to manufacture.

I replaced the crappy plastic ones with ones from a chimera with a bit of motification and cost me about £20 and they loom miles better. I will post a picture when I get a moment. 350i by the way.

I knocked these up a few years back but never got round to fitting them as there always seemed to be more important jobs that needed doing on the 390SE... these are for the plastic-dialled monstrosity that Airfix would have been ashamed of rolleyes

I replaced the horrible plastic dial things with the Chimaera ally wheels as well, quite an easy mod. Early ones were black anodised for a more original look.

Cheers, Al.
