I like them a lot. Thicker and like the feel of leather instead of plastic.

Like the way, it muted the control knobs & switch toggles, a great addition & clean. :champagne:

Plastic chrome just does not cut it, for me. Santa comes to Woodstock tomorrow .

Same satin finish as the other pieces.
Scott, you are correct. Kevin sent me black plastic toggles to verify that they matched the sheen of the OEM black plastic. While his black plastic toggles are a great match, the black leather is slightly more dull of course and it looks great with the slight contrast. You can get the leather in different colors too.

I just got home from a trip. Waiting for me was these wonderful pieces of craftsmanship to compliment the shift dial I bought a while back. Ford missed the boat on this. Kevin took elements of style from the Ford GT and brought it to our GT500s. Maybe I can install them tomorrow.

I like to disassemble things.
I installed the headlamp and radio dial covers. Fitment is absolutely perfect. You have to take your time peeling and placing the adhesive but once that is done you merely line them up and press them into place. I hope to install the toggle pieces tomorrow.

I used tweezers & a popsicle stick to manage the tape rings.

Tweezers are used to hold the ring by the tab. With one side of the tape uncovered place it into the bottom of the dial.

Using the popsicle stick push the tape down into the dial, it is the perfect width. Grab the tab pull the paper off , and set the dial.

Button cover.

Peel & fold back 1/2 the insert, align and press into place.

Then remove the tape paper on the underside of the button, only.

Place the button, then pull the remaining paper from the insert. Push up and under and pinch the top and bottom.

The parts fit perfectly, great install, great addition, and money well spent.

Yes, This. I just got done installing mine. The double backed adhesive is a PITA, but necessary. I placed my adhesive on each respective knob and then placed the bezel over it.

Extremely happy with it. FWIW, I am glad I didn't get the mode switch toggle covers. I think that would have been over the top. The problem with the stock knobs (shifter, radio, and headlight) look like they came out of an explorer.

With the headlight selector, shifter, and radio knobs, I am very happy with the aesthetics.

Well done Kevin.
