Radio/Window Buttons Flaking Off
The buttons for my radio, a/c, and window have all been flaking/chipping away, both on the console and on my steering wheel. The chrome colored material is also chipping away on the volume on the radio and cup holders in the center console.
Does anyone know how I can replacement them and where I can obtain the parts and/or new stickers?
The interior of the car isn't in the best shape cosmetically and I want to fix it up to look as new as possible. Thanks in advance!

However I don't think they have one for AC/temp buttons

Yes ~ you generally have to buy a new HVAC controller. The ceramic filled PVA painting process for plastics is not that durable & you need to keep car air freshners etc away from it as it softens the coating & makes it sticky.

I also saw a thread a while back someone on ebay was selling stickers you can just buy a bunch if you can find them and stick them over the current buttons.

something like this. its temporary but sometimes you can get better quality ones, the link above is just a quick example I found just to show you options.

The HVAC control module is sealed & they probably don't make them because you can't access the buttons.

One of the most frustrating thing about this car, mine is doing it too. Not even my friend's Acura does this...sort of disappointed. Anyone have any experience with the decals?

Hey, clean your car!
My driver side window button came with one of those stickers on it when I bought it used. I didn't realize it for a long time, and no other buttons have stickers. Apparently the stickers are good enough quality to fool me for quite a while.
