Default Yes...

The little raised horizontal strip near the bottom of the button is now chrome. This is for the ESP/Sunshade/Sport/etc buttons on the dash.

Honestly, it's not that big of a deal. Maybe if I had aluminum trim, but I think it doesn't match the carbon.

I saw this in a red car in the showroom of my dealer.

Default I have already downloaded the eBahn Bentley Manual for the switch disassembly

But I doubt, in the end, I will have the motivation to actually change out the switches. I would love to change the passenger air bag light from bright yellow to a subtle red to better match the other buttons.

Default Easy conversion

take 4" strip pf aluminium foil. roll tightly into cylindrical shape. put krazy glue on back. mount under existing switches.
cost :
foil 1c
krazy glue $2:39
knowing you have a "custom" RS4 - priceless
