I've been working with Samba member project_therapy to reproduce the early ivory colored blue dot fresh air knobs as well as the early ivory ash tray knob. The first set of knobs are still being designed, but they are looking great so far. If you haven't seen any of Kevin's stuff, he has an ETSY store as well as Samba ads. Pricing still needs to be figured out. I hope this generates some buzz as I'm sure there are folks here that could use these items!

Those look great! Not getting picky, just so it could be more accurate, the indentation for the blue dots could be a little more shallow.

Yeah, he's addressed that already. Although once it's filled with blue paint it won't seem so deep.

Kevin is a master. If you have good original clips L/R he can copy, I'm sure he'd be willing to do it. Contact him.
