[Shotimes] EATC buttons

I was thinking about doing this myself. I have a 94 with original uncracked
buttons. I was gonna pull it oout sometime this week and try my hand at
reinforcing the buttons. I'm careful how I press the buttons as to not put
stres on them, but some others that have ridden in my car aren't so careful,
and I don't want to be pissed at them for breaking a button on me. I figure
~$5 for clear epoxy is better than trying to get a good deal on a
"redesigned EATC"
