Default MITA motorsports aluminum control knobs

Hey guys,
I bought the Mita motorsports AC knobs for the S2000. Two knobs is $50 but $25 shipping cost... so I opted free shipping. They said it will take 3 months. They weren't kidding! I ordered right before Xmas and just got it a couple days ago. LOL

The knob itself is nice. Aluminum, powdercoated black. The only issue (I think) is the indicator slit where the light shows through is not filled like OEM (with plastic). I'm thinking of filling this slit with some type of clear epoxy to make it looks like OEM. Anyone ever works with Epoxy or whatever material can accomplish this? Thanks guys.

You need to look in your packaging for the piece. It should have a lens in it.

​​​Hmm. Are you 100% positive it comes with lens? You have a set with them?

I looked on the site and don't see it having one???

Thanks. I definitely did not receive any lens. I emailed them and they said they only included lens for a small number of Knobs on the early release. That's mess up.

Ask them for the STL file. They look printed. Easy to replicate.

Yeah..either that or I'm thinking of pouring some clear epoxy to fill it. Tape the other end up of course.
