Aliexpress Switches

Anyone have any experience with the quality of the Switches from there, seems too cheap.

never had any issuers with cheapo switches  Some have had switches with the window emblem slightly obscured  Try BOLDSPORT

The ones I've just fitted look like those on Ali Express. Paid about £20 for a full 5-door set including headlight switch, mirror switch and fuel cap switch. For the price I wasn't expecting much but anything would be better than my 118 thousand mile old ones! To be fair, I think they're extremely good. As mentioned on another post about them I've seen, the icons on them could do to be a couple of mm closer to the tip of the switch but thats purely an observation I made after being aware of it. Side by side with the OEM ones, theres hardly any difference in the icon position.

Looks a load better than before so for £20, until I do through and replace everything with OEM stuff, it'll do

I fit aliexpress ones 4 years ago, still perfect, no wear and definitely look OEM.

All, has anyone installed aftermarket switches or even better, know of a switch panel that will fit somewhere in my Limited?  Trying to do a clean install.

replaced every switch possible on the mk5 when i bought it 2nd hand, as all were faded.
No problem with these switches.

Installed the window and fuel and auto headlights switch from aliexpress, all looks fine to me, not rubbing/wearing on the chrome so far and wasn't too expensive.
