    Having recently watched an episode of 'Shed and Buried' where I saw Sam Lovegrove "shaving" the plastic side panels of an old Honda with a Stanley knife blade to restore them I thought I would try it on the heater control levers.

    Once I had got them looking something like I gave them a wipe over with Autoglym plastic/bumper restorer and they came out okay.

    They look good :thumbsup: I'm still waiting fro MCJ to bring out their aluminum ones but they've been imminent for the last 6 years.

    Whatever you do, don't buy the JK repro ones. They appear to be made from Chinese floor sweepings.
