How are the knows and starter installed? Is there soluble sided tape?So I ordered a bunch of small cosmetic items over the past few weeks and I finally have them all installed so here's a quick look.
Also do you have links for them?
Thanks.

Here is the link I used to purchased the blue AC knobs. They initially sit very snug over the factory AC knobs and I was happy. However, after being installed for 2 weeks now, they don't grip or stay on at all, falling off every time I touch the dial. I am hesitant to use 3m tape for a more permanent install for fear i will never get residue off the original knob later down the road. The blue knob looked really good accenting the dash gauges and radio displays blue-ish yew. Cheap $14 parts... get what you pay for I guess...

You could try putting a small and thin rubber band around the tip of the factory knob and then sliding the new one over it so it rolls the rubber band down to the base. Shouldn't be able to see the band and the extra friction should suffice

The tail light covers look great and I think that is how they should have been designed in the first place. I had seen some ugly chrome ones and wondered if someone would do them in body color. Would look good in plain metal with body color, too.Here you go. Added nighttime pic of sidemarkers the LED bulbs arrive tomorrow for them.
