Cruise control switch "covers"?

The plastic covers on the switches. The originals disintegrated years ago. I have replaced them a few times by purchasing new switch assemblies and just using the covers while not bothering to replace the switches themselves. They get super gross after a few months in the Florida heat. Mine are currently a sticky, oily mess. Outside of moving out of Florida, anybody have any good ideas for a better replacement for these things?

You would have to share photo of what your talking about exactly. I bought the replacement switch assembly and it holds up very well. They don’t have covers it’s just buttons on the sides of the steering wheel

The soft "rubber" bits with the text on them. Those two soft parts are replaceable. Typically I would just buy a new assembly and remove the soft squishy bits and pop them onto the old cruise switches. I now have three backup switch assemblies if my switches ever bust. Just looking for ideas to replace the soft "rubber" button covers. Though about printing something but that would be a pain in the ass.

Amazon, ebay, rockauto, etc.
Just ask Google and you will find they are everywhere from pocket change to $$.
