Possible To Purchase Radio Knobs Only?

mini1 · November 15, 2009

Friend with 02 Silverado is missing volume/power and tune knob on stock Delco AM/FM/CD head unit. He doesn't want to replace the head unit (it works fine), just replace the 2 knobs. Any place to buy just these two knobs? Dealer? This is the same radio below.

Here are some on Ebay. They are probably all interchangable from that time period on those delco style radios. This auction lists several different model vehicles.

The auction says it doesn't fit CD player models but that appears to be because of the bass and treble knobs. The volume and tuning knobs look the same as your radio.

I would say ebay, or your local junkyard

Got one just like it.

The 2 large knobs are cracked at the sleeve and won't stay on.

Also, the night time lighting quit.

Hummmm J/Y time.

But then, the noise on the AM band is so bad it may be time for a newer HU.

The ebay guy is telling me that the knobs will not fit.

I replaced the seek button on my deck from this website: http://replacementradios.com/index.php?cPath=290_320_510

They are a little pricy, but the only place I could find specialized buttons knobs.

The website has the knobs, but he wants $30 plus shipping for both of the knobs. I could buy the entire head unit with the knobs on ebay for not much more.

Try specmo.com gm sends the radios there for repair. I've had a few radios repaired there. They do good work and have every part for our radios.

Take care,

I wanted to update everyone. I brought the truck into the dealer and pulled the parts guy outside. I asked him if they could sell me the knobs only. He went back the computer and pulled up some numbers and then went back and got two knobs. He put them on and they fit! $22 total for brand new OEM knobs. Radio is as good as new. I thought they were going to tell me to buy the entire radio!

Should have them. They are a authorized GM repair center.

I have no idea which is which, as the invoice lists them as "knob".
