Killer Instinct Control Panel Buttons -- Weird Profile??

Howdy folks,

I have a Killer Instinct 2 machine that I believe to be all original. I am looking to get some new buttons for it and I noticed that they have a unique/odd crown or profile to them. See attached picture. Any idea on brand of these buttons and does anyone out there with a Killer Instinct or other machine have the same buttons??

Thanks!!

They look original. They probably have an iL marking on them if you check. They also look like they will clean up just fine. No need to replace buttons unless they are cig burned, IMO.

I agree, they should clean up but I prefer to get new buttons on the microswitch type since it's not as easy to chuck these in a drill to polish like leaf switch buttons. May take a go at polishing them in a vibratory tumbler and see if that produces good results).

I will look and see what brand marking is next time I go to my storage.

FYI, you will not find that exact shade of blue in a new button. That's why I would personally go through the cleaning process. The blue that is out there now is much darker. Good luck, either way.
