I have 2002 mercury cougar. The paint on my A/C gauges seems to be fading and its hard to see the icons on my gauges as well as at night when I turn the lights on it's affecting how the light shines through the gauges it's very dim. Does anyone have a solution for this or a place I could buy new A/C gauges? Any helpful feedback would be appreciated.

Are these gauges that you use to recharge the AC?

Actually I'm referring to my climate control switches on the dash used to control the blower and how cold you want it and all that stuff. The paint on the actual gauges is fading. It seems like they were cheaply done. I was wondering if anyone had any solutions to this or knew of some place I could take it?

Thanks

I would recommend getting new ones from a salvage yard. You could try to get new ones from the dealer, but chances are they won't have it.
