    i got mine from old gables transponder panels and radio management panels.

    Nihad is working on one similar like this one, but not quite the same:

    Its a quite hard knob to mold because the base is really thin.

    I would keep my eye out on ebay for old transponder panels.

    Hi phil, the top one looks a bit like the electric guitar volume control. Google it, i'm sure it'll bring you some good and cheap results on that!

    As for the second one down on the picture, they're found on loads of 727 panels. Like Stef said on ebay hunt down an old comm/ transponder panel etc. they have them on. Depends how many you want of course as to how cost effective that will be. I have one on one of my transponders i bought off ebay for £6 a couple of years back.

    Hope that helps ..
