I believe the stainless steel button would be better to the touch with nice cold metal feel and definitely stand out more, but it’s definitely less well integrated in the overall look of the dash.

I also enjoy the stencil-like font, same as the satin buttons on the M steering wheel.
Thanks for the heads up. For me it’s just about getting a nice aesthetic look, don’t really care about how the button feels for the half second I press it, haha. I currently have a silver button (eBay) that’s decent but it doesn’t quite match the surrounding trim, so I’m hoping the one from the euro g11 matches better. I’m picky, what can I say 😅
