Why do circuit breakers always look old and busted?

well?

Actually I scored a pretty nice one out of a junkyard car the other day. I think the plastic is slightly different on them or something.

I dont believe you :-)

Because they ARE old and busted. Even one out of a 91 is over 20 years old.

It is true, I have one in my car and I've seen a couple others in parts cars, and they definitely look much worse than the hazard/defrost buttons, for example.

That's why I used a delete plug!



I have like 10 of them.

I honestly think that looks worse than an old circuit breaker.

Good question! The power window bottons always look great. I just soaked mine in armorall. They are holding up just fine...ish.

Me too. Mines all white and crusty. Iirc Levent has a bunch if new ones for sale.

What happens if you delete this? I was thinking of putting a switch for something else in that hole.
