Not sold on the texture, but so exited and happy this went through. If you'll offer black aluminum, I will buy the second its out. ( I'm gonna buy regardless anyways :) )
The pictures make the texture look a-little worse then it actually is. It feels just about the same as the textured plastic on the top of the dash.

That's so far the best interior appearance mod. When I buy my V6 I might be very interested.

Yes thank you for suggesting them!!
Can you tell us what changes you ended up having to make? Also how do you feel about the fitment of the part?

Most of the changes I made were cosmetic changes. I widened the base of the toggle (that semi circle part) to better fit the cutout in the OEM panel. This should also help the toggle feel more solid because of the extra support it will get from the OEM panel. Overall I think the toggle fits great! I tweaked a few dimensions for prototype 2 to try and get it a bit more solid feeling but I think even prototype 1 is good enough.

Update

Well that was fast! Toggle assembly v2.3 has already passed manual inspection and is in production. Just waiting on part 2 to pass.

Part 2 or the button part is being made in their transparent frost detail plastic. This is to help out text illumination by defusing the light. This should help get a more uniform distribution of light for improved night time readability and looks.

Unfortunately I have no way to tell! The last time I sat in a premium 2015 was in August of 2014! I will say that my toggles are about 3/4 inch from base to edge.
