Thank you so much. I purchased push on/pull off ***** from the Suncoast parts finder. They didn't look exactly like mine so I was suspicious. I had watched several YouTubes, seen several posts and all said the 997.2 sticky ***** just pull off. Mine didn't. As I was contemplating using a screwdriver to wedge them off, I came across this thread.
Easy to get the cap off and had to find a tiny torx (#6), but worked like a charm. After getting them off, it was simple work to clean them with rubbing alcohol (soak and rub, soak and rub). I put them back on and they look great and feel better.
I really appreciate it.

One side note - that very tiny little minuscule screw in the center of the inside **** retainer.
It's easy to drop.
And it's not easy to find after you drop it.
An hour later I got it.

I had the same experience coming across this thread just in the nick of time. I did put new ones on.

Hi
Safe yourself the hassle and the $$. I ordered 99,9% alcohol via Amazon, a fibre cloth and it took me 10 min to clean both *****, the next day ( as in the beginning it still felt a bit sticky ) the stickiness was gone. Wet fibre cloth and turn the button holding the cloth against it.

Thanks for preventing me from just ripping the ***** off like the web would have you believe (maybe on earlier versions). A couple of updates:
1.) My 2010 needed a T7, not T6 bit. May want to have assorted sizes handy.
2.) Sun Coast now charging $80 a set.
3.) Chrome rings had some extra flash on them requiring trimming. Take your time, test fit the chrome rings on the **** before mounting the ***** on the radio. Cap should then snap on like butta.

Five minutes with liquid hand sanitizer (70% alcohol) sprayed on a shop rag, hold the rag against the *****, spin them a few times and the sticky is gone.
