Default Looking for Part #s - Steering Wheel parts

I noticed the 2011 have silver covers around the areas where the MODE button is on the left and the Telephone answering is on the right side of the steering wheel.

I know some places sell carbon fiber wrapped ones, but looking for the 2011 silver ones that come stock on 2011 models--will they directly fit on the 2006? i assume so since the steering wheel looks the same.

Sewell here I come.

^ nice ninja edit.

interesting... a few questions.

1. so is there one part number for two covers, or two separate part numbers?

2. do the button assemblies come with the covers? if not, will buttons from previous years fit the 2011 silver steering spoke covers?

3. can you PM me a price as well? thanks in advance.

on edit

1. Silver covers aren't available by themselves, you have to get the full switch assembly.

2.Buttons,covers are one assembly. That part number and price is for both left n right switch.

3. Done

that explains the high cost--no wonder. Perhaps easier to have them repainted, or refinished. Not even Think Design would have been that expensive, but with the electronics it makes perfect sense.

I stand corrected, think design is double the price of Lex Tuners! Wow....well, I have bought stuff from Lex Tuners in the past at a great deal -- if only we could get the covers only......

perhaps other markets-- I know some car manufacturers have different parts available differently other places.
