If anyone's still out there, anyone at all: this fix also works for the button above glove box (entire trim above box needs to be removed, there's how-to videos for that)

An alternative to the sanding is getting an adhesive remover, I used Unisolve pads and some elbow grease. Worked perfectly and the surface was clean and smooth and then the Plasti Dip. Looks great.

Esaabparts has new OEM LH and RH covers for NG 9-3's for $20 bucks…don't bother with all this. Just did mine this week, 5 minute job.

This worked out awesome! (see result: https://ibb.co/g8d2on )

Do you know how to get the plastic cover around the window controlls off? Would like to do the same to those panels and they as they are a bit worn.

so good. Is it soft touch coating or just a standart black plasti dip ?

Alexander Nilsson says:

Perfect, was just thinking on how-to fix that!
