    So... the idea is to find some custom air brake knobs. I see some on a couple of sites online, but I was wondering if anyone knows of a place/truckstop/shop that carries various kinds besides the red and white tractor and trailer knobs.

    Otherwise, I might order a pair online at some point. Something to do, I guess.

    sounds good! I'll keep my eyes open and I'll post pics whenever I get around to finding a place and making my selection.

    I'm sure Iowa 80 T/S has them.

    Keep the real ones handy, I've heard to pass DOT inspection you need the red 8 side and yellow 4 side in place to pass. If this is not true, then my apologies but I have heard from a few drivers that the standard knobs are required.
     
    Smaggs Thanks this.

    I remember wandering in there once. I was completely blown away with the amount of chrome and accessories in there.

    I've had two inspections since I put my wood grain one's on without problem, but I'll have to ask my state trooper friend if he knows
