    A few of my buttons are showing wear and tear -- has anyone popped off (and back on) the buttons on the a/c control panel???

    There are definitely people who have recolored the LEDs behind them, though I don't know if that involved popping any buttons off. Maybe if you can find some of those threads, there'll be more details.

    while you're in there, can you tell me why my fan button sticks on the left side?

    yep, I believe mine is doing that too, another reason for me to just swap the entire unit.
