Default 991 sticky radio button fix?

I know suncoast has these buttons for sale at $85. How do remove these buttons, just pull? Anyone has a fix after removal? TIA

Coat it with talcum powder - it will take the stickiness away.

If anyone has found good replacements on AliExpress, please share a link. This is not something I feel is necessary to by OE.

Same. Soaked in cup of isopropyl to remove the coating. Nice and SMOOTH natural plastic now - zero issues.

Default I like these

I glued them on and they match the interior nicely. Will last forever.

Search these part numbers and you'll find these all over the internet from as little as $5 a set to $17.99 on Amazon Prime.

Job done and mission completed. Pulled it off and brushed with glue gone, then isopropyl alcohol. Saved 85 + plus shipping.
