Here is a cheap 4 stalk with faded lettering I saw on eBay today. No relation to the seller.

Faded letters are meaningless as it's just a little cap that pops off and is easily replaced

Embarrassing but I want to do this enough to say - I lost the instructions that came with my cable(dash switch version) and I don't know exactly how to install it. Has anyone done any install instructions that I missed? I know there was some talk about this.

Pdwight, do you have any pics that you can share for the likes of me please?

Thanks.
