Volume ****

Silly question but: I had a loaner with base stereo and I noticed that the volume ****(s) had a rubber texture to them.

However, in my car, the radio control ***** are completely smooth hard plastic, no rubber coating on it at all. Did they change this from 2014-2015? I do have rubber on the AC **** though.

Don't know about the F cars, but my 11 CM has the rubber ***** and they have started to degrade and turn sticky. I wish they were plastic.

hmmm... very odd. I wonder why the differences? Doesn't seem to be a model year thing.
