Black MFSW Buttons?

I'm trying to find out if the MFSW buttons for a R56 MINI ever came in Black? If so, what year and model did they come on? Once I have this info, I'll bo to REALOEM and find a part number. I appreciate your help.

I have the black buttons too, on my late 07. I always thought the newer ones look a bit nicer!

bakerjam - I think that is the standard auto ****.

Black MFSW Buttons

I'll be more than happy to swap my silver buttons from my '09 JCW for your black buttons. I've gone with CF and the black will go so much better than the silver. We could swap just buttons or the whole assembly with wiring. Thanks for the consideration.

There is no MFSW button.

MFSW = Multi Function Steering Wheel.

The button control the following

Left side - Radio and Bluetooth Telephone
Right side - Cruise Control

Are you looking for a full black button. A little paint can take care of that.

BTW BamaCooperS your piece is boxed and will be in the mail tomorrow.
