Custom Heater Knobs
I've been dying to get these fitted to Bandit for the past week or so, and now I've finally managed it. These knobs were a straight swap for the originals. I simply placed a cloth over the original knobs, grabbed them tightly with the pliers and gave a good, hard, steady tug. Then it was simply a matter of pushing the custom knobs into place and voila!
