I'm going to paint them flat black. You think that will help?

Your paint is the trick - x

Atta - boy!!
Do the dash back too if you still can. Wipe your wires with thinner-you may need to see wire colors and stripes.
Your droplight will love you.

ERA is sending out a new blank dash we will for sure paint it. I did not paint any exposed wires, just loom. Pictures are with flash -

Great idea -

We've been working on that (ERA fasteners for buttons) as it comes. Not on a hunt - anything we touch we convert. If there is more in that area, we may get it. If it is pulling from building - no. It's like scrubbing aluminum, you can spend a lot of time doing it. Overtime we will get it.

I don't use serts on everything. I have been working on ducting the radiator and there I tap the sheet and screw it together with 10- 32(?) button heads. There is a fair amount of fastener conversion involved with the Cooling and adjacent panels.
