I just received my buttons from Climarepair - Excellent service/excellent quality and much better price - No hassle having to return ship your old buttons to receive the core charge refund.

The part is clearly injection molded, and not 3D printed, which is nice.

The finish is OEM equivalent or better. Actually perfect. It's a smoother finish than the Sport, PASM, PSM, PSE etc. switches on the lower console below the HVAC control, but not quite as smooth as the buttons on the factory PCM(Yes, there is a difference. I had never noticed this difference between the two finishes of the factory buttons/ switches before, but I'd never before inspected them with a magnifying glass and a high output light source either). The Temp font/ kerning and Fan icon are very clean, crisp, and well placed.

The fit is well engineered. No gaps or funny fitment issues. They snapped into place and look factory or better.

They are slicker to the touch than original, but I was expecting that as it's not a rubberized finish.

I can't comment on durability because I just installed them.

So, as it stands, I'm satisfied.
Do you have a picture or two of the Revolution switches you installed?

Awesome looking repair! We are glad you guys like our product, thanks for the feedback, much appreciated.



On the other hand, we just created a video on how to fine adjust replacement switches for some older cars with severe HVAC interior wear. Takes only 8 seconds!




Best regards

I ordered new switches from your company on 4/29 and they have not arrived as of today 5/16. Would really like to get a response from the email i sent through your site as to when I can expect to receive them.

Hello 911Consultant, as we said, some US customers are experiencing delays due to Coronavirus. Apparently your government is taking longer than expected processing packages from Europe. Nothing we can do about it... other than wishing they process it ASAP!



On the other hand, another 997 GT3 with our switches just installed

FYI:
There have been a lot of negative reviews early on regarding Climarepair Buttons.
I have ordered 2 pair for my 2 997 cars this past year at 2 different times throughout the year.

Both pair are excellent top rate quality and look perfect.
When I ordered my Climarepair Buttons they arrived promptly. This was before the CV hit.

Hi John/Climarepair.com,

I have sent a few e-mails now following up the status of my order 4375, I just need to know what the status is please? If the order can't/isn't being fulfilled I would rather look at a different option.

If it has been sent I would appreciate a tracking number?

Thanks for your help,

John
