I tried Rustoleum paint and primer in one. Metallic silver spray can - looks very close but leaves a slippery surface. I am sure there is a flexible spray that may be better.
You can still buy the originals from Becker in the US $39.99 a pair: https://www.ebay.com/itm/Chrysler-Cr...19.m1438.l2649

I would be interested in metal replacement if someone made a nice one!

I recall James1549 finishing some knobs some years back. I think it was flexible paint.

I've included some pictures of them and some installed on my car. As do the a/c trim rings, these really add too the look of the interior. I'm working on some other parts too. The door lock pins are threaded on the inside so they screw on in place of the factory plastic ones. The radio knobs have a rubber insert so they press firmly on the radio just like the factory ones do. I am making some extras of each in case others are interested in them. The door lock pins with shipping will be $18 and the radio knobs will be $24 with shipping.

Find a flexible paint. You can almost buy an OEM radio for the price Becker wants for the knobs, trouble is they will be yellowish.
I still have my original knobs from my 2004 Limited, I swapped them out through two radios. They sit on an OEM nav radio in a box on the shelf now.
