Thumbs up

Someone asked about this a few weeks ago, I believe the dealer sells color matched spray cans for interior pieces. They did a few years ago when I bought some, anyway. Make sure and wipe down the pod with a good degreasing agent. Windex has always worked for me,,,,98

If the dealer can't help you, check with an auto paint shop. Some years back I painted some interior pieces with a spray paint that is made for plastic. It was a 2-part process with the first being applying a clear spray that roughed up the plastic, then applying a finish in the color that you want. Can't remember the name of the stuff I used but it worked really well. I kept the vehicle probably for another 5 or 6 years after that and it didn't rub off.
