Fellow Listers, Any suggestions on how to restore the dull instrument knobs and heater control panel on a BJ7? A second option would be to buy aftermarket. Any thoughts? Thanks, Elton _______________

Hi Elton, Indian Ink will bring back the colour. It can also be used on your horn/indicator switch. You can pick the stuff up at a craft store or Michaels. Easy to use and lasting. Good luck. Paul --
