Default Rocker switches

I have an 06 ultra that I would like to put in several shows. But at the present I have several plastic parts that have turned gray instead of black (rocker light switchs and headphone jacks). So if there is any one that can help me figure out how to return these items back to black I would like to know.

+1 on the Back to Black. It's made by mothers and it's a great product. I use it in my two trucks.

You can't find the chrome switches as no one makes them yet. I've been on HD's R&D to come out with them, but haven't seen them. The cover plate is available from Kuryakyn and a few other places
