Not sure if someone research into this before, but the Carsmo similar **** I found is like this

Sato Parts USA - Product Detail - K-5475-S Metal ****

Will this fits? that's the question.

Lots of folks like the Carsmo ***** and they are indeed quality products. If you don't want to spend that much, I got these on ebay for $5 and had no issues. You'll even get a spare. Some users have reported having to put teflon tape over the spindle to get them to grab. It's obviously not Carsmo quality, but looks great. I thought that little indicator line on them would bother me (since the ***** free-spin), but it doesn't.

thanks for sharing.

i gotta be honest, $60 tag for that Carsmo thing is just too overpriced. I'm gonna give this ebay item a shot. Matter fact I just use them for look - i control radio/music primiarly on steering wheel

+1 for the $5 ebay *****.

I sent this to OP in a PM, but figured others might want to see. For me they fit great, I didn't have to add any tape to the spindle, if anything, on one of my radio ***** I had to push it in a bit hard to get it on. the inside of the **** is soft plastic, and the spindle is metal, so I think I bored it out a little mashing it in. No harm or lost functionality though. The ***** go into the dash, so there's no gap. Some shadow in this pic makes it look like the **** doesn't go past the facing, but it does. Here's a pic

Oh man, I literally just bought the Carsmo's like 2 weeks ago, these look just as good. Oh well.

I PM'd OP mine as well, but if anyone else wants a second view:

I PMd him mine for the Trifecta, lol. Maybe we can get Kenny to start a group buy for these and get these puppies down to $3.99 shipped

I have the eBay ***** as well. They're nicer than the OEM's since they aren't plastic.

Haha, I have those ebay ones as well. I actually like the lines on them more than carsmo, the light from the glow around the **** looks cooler. As a bonus, when its really cold or hot, carsmo ***** tend to slide off easily due to metal expansion, the ebay ones dont.

Ugh, best pic I got, I need to take some proper interior shots in daylight...



NVM!!! FOUND ONE!!! Still terrible lighting, but closer shot.

A few sets of ***** had a different inner adhesive formula, and that caused problems in extremely low temperatures. We don't have that issue with any of the new *****.
