Does anybody know if it's possible to get the window switch trim pieces for the sports trim door panel?

As shown in the following pictures, the window switches have some wiggle room unlike how they were fitting on the old 2000 corolla style plastic door panels.

If it's not possible, is there an alternative to filling the gap with maybe an aftermarket trim piece/bezel? Thanks in advance!

You might be able to wrap them with electrical tape to make for a tighter fit when inserted.

Ah yes, I completely forgot about my role of electrical tape :eek:

If no non-hack solution is suggested, I guess I'd have no other option then to do that!

Thanks

Pop the switch out and bend the retaining tabs out just a bit to make it more snug if the switch has metal retaining tabs. If the tabs are plastic, wedge small pieces of foam from a child’s pool noodle to force the tabs outward.

The Sport Door Master Switch does look much better

I have this issue plus a lot of vibration from my sub. I went to great lengths to dampen the vibrations. As for the fit i used some black foam weather stripping around the base to get a tighter fit. Over the last year I noticed it lifting when using the window switch and noticed the plastic surrounding the switch is broken in many places causing the issue.

My 2013 Sport does have those chrome plastic trim panels around the door switches. In fact recently I had a switch replaced at the dealer, and they did not put it back on. I went back the next day and thankfully the old switch was still on his bench with the trim piece on it. I would like to think they would be available from Mopar, but you could check the bone yards as well. Maybe other high end models have them as well, I'm not sure.
