Product Description
Radio knobs are the parts of your stereo you touch most, and the right ones make a new radio look like it has always been there. These Custom Autosound Knobs are replacement knobs for Custom Autosound radios, offered in three finishes so you can match your dash.
Choose a Finish
- Chrome
- Black
- Black with chrome trim
Chrome suits the bright dashes of the 1950s and early 1960s. Black, or black with chrome trim, fits the later muscle car era and darker interiors.
How to Order
The order form asks for your vehicle's Year, Make and Model and for your Custom Autosound radio model. Knob shafts and styles differ between radio models and vehicle applications, so those details help us send the right set. If you are not sure which radio model you have, check the label on the radio chassis or contact us with your order information.
When to Replace Knobs
People order replacement knobs for several reasons:
- A knob has been lost or cracked
- The chrome finish has worn or pitted after years of use
- You want a different look, such as switching from chrome to black
- You are restoring the interior and want everything fresh
Matching Your Interior
Look at the other knobs on your dash, including the heater and light controls, before choosing a finish. Matching them makes the radio look like part of the original design. If your dash has a mix of chrome and black, the black with chrome trim finish is often a good balance.
Installation
Most radio knobs press onto their shafts and can be pulled off by hand. Remove the old knob carefully, line up the new one with the flat or splined side of the shaft and press it on gently. Do not force a knob onto the wrong shaft, which can damage the radio's controls.
Why Genuine Custom Autosound Knobs
Knobs made for Custom Autosound radios are sized for their shafts and designed to suit their faces. Generic knobs may fit loosely, sit too far from the dash or clash with the radio's styling. Choosing the right model keeps the controls solid and the look consistent.
Caring for Your Knobs
Clean chrome knobs with a soft cloth and a mild cleaner made for chrome, and avoid abrasive polishes that can wear the plating. Black knobs need only a damp cloth. Keeping them clean preserves the finish and makes the whole dash look sharper.
Ordering Tips
If you are replacing just one damaged knob, consider ordering a full set so the finishes match exactly. Older knobs fade over time, and a new knob next to a worn one can stand out. Have your radio model handy when you order so we can match the shafts and style correctly.
