Item reference plz?
What could be the reference of these white blanking buttons on the black rubber between windscreen & bonnet?
I'm completely lost with Rimmers sketches and I can't find the right one in relation with my missing one. Thanks a lot.

Thank you I'll do it but I don't want any black ones, mines being white... Not a question of taste - black should be more discreet - but any discrepancy would be worse and I don't want to change them all, unless a member of the club could have a bunch of spares for a cheaper price than Rimmers: with VAT & shipping costs the total becomes preposterous. Thanks.

I am sure if you take one out you will find the underside is the original colour, black

If you want them to match colour wise, you are better scouring the scrapyards for some secondhand ones
or better still get some new ones and spray your scuttle panel black to match |

Don't need to spray it, Kiwi Black shoe polish, the liquid stuff with the sponge applicator is the best thing for it. "Paint" it on, let it dry then buff off.

Just give them a wipe with some trim restorer... They will go black again, for a while.

Thank you to all of you.
'Scuttle' that was the magic word! At Rimmers the reference is EYC101470PMA. But I can't believe that all mines turned white while the rubber around is still undoubtedly black...
