yeah, i need those little inserts, too. too bad no one makes them. even if they were just white, i'd take them. the PO epoxied cheesy plastic purple diamonds in mine. awful look.
This Carpenter repro uses a phony-baloney Ford part number (C1TZ-9700-l). Ford never offered the white centers only, they were only furnished with the ****.
The ***** usually clean up pretty good. I cleaned mine and bought new inserts. I also removed the bezels and polished them on a buffing wheel attached to my bench grinder. Even with some pitting in the chrome they look great for a DD. You have to look really close to see that they are not perfect.
I have the TEMP ****, I just need the HEAT ****. AS I said, the vendors ND posted in the past are either out of business, don't have the ****, or don't reply to my inquiry.
As an alternative you could replace the HEAT and TEMP inserts with plain white inserts or use chrome wiper ***** off a 65 Mustang. I think those would look ok since they are below the dash. Summit sells them for $6.75
Make sure you ask if it is has words on it (TEMP, HEAT as needed) as I've gotten a couple in original sealed Ford plastic bags with correct part numbers on them that had a plain insert. They are still in the bags, I never opened them.
Choke ***** I've seen are always plain and the chrome bezel behind it says Choke, but anything is possible.
Choke **** and bezel only furnished with the cable, not available by themselves.
Pic: 9700 is the basic number for the choke cable, notice that there's no separate **** and bezel basic number shown...like there is for the adjacent (to the right) blower switch (18578).
