I learned something today and thought I would share. A quick search didn't have anything so I hope this isn't too redundant.
Some of my climate control buttons were wearing and definitely show signs of wear at night with the back light on so I ordered a few new buttons.
When replacing the buttons, I noticed I miss ordered. I wanted an Off, Low and one of the 'dot' buttons as these show the most signs of wear. I actually got 2 Low and no dot. Oops.
Here is what I learned.
The lens on the old buttons are yellow, very yellow.
The new ones are clear. Completely clear.
Also, the lens on the buttons (the clear plastic piece) just pops out, and can easily be replaced, just in case you happened to order the wrong button. : )
Notice not only the lens is yellow, but the text on the button is also a bit yellow.
And this is what it looks like when all put together. Dang. I now need to replace the remaining buttons.
I like driving with my headlights on all the time (no daytime lights so I just leave the headlights on) and it's always difficult to see if my AC light is on. This helps, but not as much as I was hoping for. Regardless, I see a button order in my near future.
For reference:
55905-60020, AC
55905-60030, Face
55905-60040, Foot Face
55905-60050, Foot
55905-60060, Foot Defrost
55905-60070, Defrost
55905-60080, Off
55905-60090, Low
55905-60100, Mid 'dot'. Need 2
55905-60110, Hi
55905-60120, Fresh Recirculate
55905-60130, Auto
FYI: They can be about $4 each so if you order everything, it can add up to more than $50 just for button covers.
Hope this helps someone,
