Silver radio / NVAC knobs?

Is anyone still selling new sets of 4 silver radio / NVAC knobs? The matching turn signal rings aren't that important. Non-navi, if it matters.

Reference: https://acurazine.com/forums/showthr...t=silver+knobs

I just learned that my brother-in-law's father-in-law (who knows what in the world that's called?!) picked up a beautiful nighthawk (blackhawk? I don't recall the name anymore...) on black '03 CLS last year. I'm pointing him to this site for general auto info, but what I really want to do is get him a new set of 4 silver radio / NVAC knobs to match his metal interior! Non-navi, if it matters. Are these sold by anyone anymore?!

Background - Last night I parked next to a really shiny '03 CLS (chromed OEMs) at a family gathering that was double parked over the yellow parking line to avoid door dings. Since I was driving my '01 nighthawk (blackhawk?) on ebony CLS, I parked next to it. Twins stick together you know. Yes, of course, I kept my distance next to it. He and I figured it out later that evening. To make a long story short, he talked my ear off all night about our cars.

As far as I know the guy that made them hasn't for years. If you find some just get the radio & AC knobs. The rings are whacked. I've had them. The knobs are a good match to the stock silver trim though.

I'm almost positive the guy that sold them never actualy made them himself. I've searched google for similar knobs and found a couple of manufaturers that made very similar knobs, if not the exact knobs themselves.

You guys talkin about the ones like mine? They're definitely different than the ones in the links above. Sorry the pics suck, they're a little old and taken w/ a crappy camera, but I can put better ones up later. The only place I've seen them is in the black market. I have the turn signal rings as well. If I can find the packaging and instructions, I'll see if I can find the company that makes them.

I don't know, but the ML Model that Kilo web site is selling looks like the ones I have on my car and I bought mine off the Black Market here. If those are not them or will not work then good luck. It took me over two months of "bumps" to get mine. Clinton
