The PO somehow put tiny dents in the brushed aluminum surround and I'll probably replace that since it has to come off for the button replacement. Can any of you share any button upgrade info or give me a link to a thread on the subject?

Thank you.

FWIW when I had the windows tinted on my '14 Q7 and '13 S5 right after purchase I had the installer place clear bra film over the start buttons.
