Hatch & gas door release lever handles?

Does anyone know where I might be able to get the plastic pieces that go over the hatch and gas door release levers? Currently, mine are just bare metal with the plastic pieces missing and I am looking to get either new, or used but in new condition pieces to un-ghettofy these pieces.

TIA

they are like a plastic coating with the labels printed on. You might be able to convince TOR parts to make a repro sticker for them.

So it doesnt sound like anything I could even pull off a parts car and put on mine unless I remove the entire assembly?
Might have to come up with some alternate solution and make something myself.

thats right, the icons are printed directly on the "plasti-dipped" style levers. I was just thinking about painting mine black. Im the only driver of my car and i know which lever is which. I may use a paint pen and throw a T on one and G on the other.

Okay thanks again for the clarification. I may see if there are other lever handles that I could potentially adapt to fit onto the levers. Would finish it up nice. I am the only driver for my car, so its not that I need it to figure out which is which, but to round out the completeness of the cabin.
