The change in the switches appears to have been around or prior to 2001.

Just got off the phone with bennett, they only offer the rocker cap in white or black
So the option that he suggested was to spray paint the cap the color you wanted or to replace the switches, I know Formula gave me livorsi's web site and they have the military rockers but would be an expensive alternative.

Chuck Miller has been working with me on several items I needed taken care of (on a boat I bought used) He has been great to deal with. I told him the service I have gotten from them is going to make it hard to buy anything but a Formula in the future.

Sets of six new white Honeywell buttons are on their way to t500hps and ApachePete.

RedDog,
I recieved the switch covers and was able to replace them without removing the switches from the panel!!!
Thanks for passing along the deal you got on those!
Now, If i could just get the carling switches I need! Carling gave me the number, but from what I'm told they will not sell them to the distributors my local retailers use. These are specific to Formula and I'm guessing they won't sell them to anyone else. I even have tracked down both Formula's and Carling's part numbers but can't get them except from Formula for $48.00 each!!!

Axapowell,
In response to your recent PM, refer to post #40. Donna was great in assisting me in finding exactly what I needed. I just went on-line at home and should be able to post a few pics soon. The original trim buttons were white (turned yellow) and new ones are red and look really good.
