Bronze buttons/paddles

Sorry! I know this has been covered a few times but really it’s a more up to date set of thoughts.

Firstly I need a new start button for my v8 R as the original is letting down the rest of the cabin and as much as I am one for originality I am thinking about going silver/black as the orange (sorry bronze) doesn’t really sit right to my eye.

Secondly I have had a scout around Britcar and Jaguar classic etc for said button and struggling to find one in any colour for the f type for much less then £100 delivered which just seems abit steep so maybe I am missing something or like everything they’ve just gone up massively as historic search from a few years back people seem to be quoting in the £25-50 range for new equipment?

Thirdly if I am phasing out the orange it’s snow balling to the paddles and mode switch and was just wondering if anyone had any links for the three pieces I need to complete the overall?
 
Hi RjBaker
If you have any success with the start/stop button, even in bronze, let me know as my 2014 R is also looking old on this piece of cabin equipment.
 
Here you go:

I converted all mine from bronze to black/silver some time ago. Dealer actually turned out cheaper for the console buttons that aftermarket, so I did that. The paddles, I was lucky to pick up a cheap SVR wheel on eBay with metal paddles, so cannot comment on those.
For dealer you might need a reg plate of a car with them on to be able to look up the part, so just 'borrow' one from those in the showroom with the colour combo you like
