Hi all, looking to join the community with 2024 GT Convertible I just looked at today. Was curious if anyone has run into the convertible top button peeling? The car has 40k miles so is out of warranty so trying to see how much and hard it would be to swap the button out.

That’s the button. The area around the arrows is worn/peeling.

Oooo... That might be expensive. If you can't get the button assembly by itself, you'd have to buy the entire module (assembly) that includes the lights, button, etc.

Of course that is just for the switch. Hope you don't break the control box attempting to remove it to access the switch. That was a problem with the S550, and it got EXPENSIVE! Be careful!

And as far as helping a switch last longer, avoid operating the switch with materials like hand lotion and sun screen on your hands. They tend to attach the material Ford uses. Don't use a citrus cleaner either.

>$100 for a little plastic switch, I'd just repaint/recoat your existing switch with a tougher material (bedliner? lol)
