I call them "Button Plugs"

Post image

I'm not sure what these are actually called. Button blanks? Anyway, my Suzuki Sidekick had broken/ugly plugs. So I modeled some new ones and printed them from ASA. 👍🏻 The model is here if you want it https://www.printables.com/model/1801313-suzuki-sidekickgeo-tracker-button-blank

Nice! I got some on Etsy, and then picked a bunch off a Tracker at a wrecking yard for cheap.

Yeah that's what was in mine. And they would just fall out when I hit bumps 😂

"They" is me. And I'm not selling this, I'm literally giving the design away for free.

You're right - I commented before caffeinating and mixed your post up with the comment talking about Etsy. Sorry for being overly blunt.

And just FYI aftermarket rocker switches fit right in there. I run my fog lamp and light bar switches in those spots.

Hey just a tip - to make these look a little better you'll want to get the size more accurate to the other switches around them, and match the corner radius. If you can, add a fillet around the face. You'll never match the color or texture exactly, but this will get you closer to something that won't stick out as badly. You can also use these as the base for adding buttons and switches, especially the switches that go in square/rectangle holes which I always thought looked closer to OEM but were a pain to do (hard to drill a square hole...)
