Dash knobs - The 1947 - Present Chevrolet & GMC Truck Message Board Network

So my truck isn't a custom trim truck, and the dash knobs are relatively plain-jane. Black plastic with some small white "ticks" around the edge where you would grab.

I'm looking for another one to go on the radio where it's missing and can't find anything. They look like these knobs on the gauge cluster:

LMC/Brothers/Ebay yield nothing other than the fancy (assuming custom trim) knobs. I only need 1, and I'm not spending 60 bucks on knobs for the truck - I'll machine some from billet before I do that. Good excuse to work on the lathe at work.

Following along as I've been looking for the same type of knobs. I've been looking for these to fit the Thrift heater (single pull knob) and the cig lighter. Same as you I haven't found this plain style anywhere and didn't want to replace every knob.

One of these might work with a bit of effort:

The trim ring can be removed from a deluxe knob.

I have a few which ones do you need.

I was under the assumption the deluxe knobs had the plastic chrome shrunk to them.

The classic parts ones look like they're deluxe
