    Black Knobs.

    Does anyone know where I can find some black knobs, like the kind you find on some electrical gear for volume etc..say a dj mixer maybe, or an older type radio.

    Its for a fan controller, It has silver knobs and I want to change them for black ones.

    Does anyone know anywhere that sells such a thing?

    Google so far has turned up a load of interracial porn sites

    I did find one place that had them, but they were colour coded, with a yellow dash or red dash on them...these have to be all black, nothing fancy

    Thanks

    Yeah I'm looking at the same ones now

    I think I'm going to need some of the K10B's but seems their out of stock atm.

    These look decent aswell but a little on the pricey side: http://www.wdmusic.co.uk/shop/produc...8&product=3787

    there's three links to different stores all showing the same black knobs he has already said that they aren't quite right and need to be completely unmarked
