I work as a Systems Administrator, so I did a bit of digging around. I tried several ways to get to final checkout, including ignoring shipping entirely. It always got me to the same step with the "No shipping options available". I turned to google and did what every sysadmin does best. I found that it is a fairly common thing with open cart.

It may be as simple as a configuration issue, or an out-dated module.
Thanks Charles, I tweeked the coupon and the product weight scale to match everything else so it should be working now. please let me know. and thanks again for your help.
I just ordered one of these dimmer switches and the A/C combo bout an hour ago, and had zero issues ordering. maybe it is just fate deciding who gets them and who doesn't?
I received the invoice for $19.95, but I wanted the overlay with the extended portions, a $5 upgrade. I tried checkout again, but it was the same issue, so perhaps you can re-invoice me? Thanks.
Ok, So I'm an idiot. The shipping issue should be resolved now.
Just ordered, and it worked! Hallelujah!
Coupon code expired.
Knurled Dimmer Switch Knob not in stock!
Any idea when you'll have more available?
I will be doing 5 more pieces with polished bands as a special request this week. Place your order and ill include it in the production run.
OK, I received these today, and did not see anyone talk about the install yet.
1. First remove the metal anti-submarine panel under the steering column
2. Reach underneath the dash and push the dimmer switch control box outward, it should just pop out.
3. Disconnect the wiring harness.
4. Press in the side clips, and slide the outer retainer off of the box
5. Pull off the dimmer switch face. There are 2 clip on places on either short side, you may want to use a technical screwdriver to disconnect things without breaking them.
6. Carefully pull the inner workings out of the housing. The whole thing will slide out. you can use a small pair of needle nose pliers to pull the little metal bit on the corner.
7. Remove the roller knob. Be careful, there are small parts inside it.
8. You are going to have to sand down the original textured area on the knob. This is a VERY BLURRY pic to show you that they will not fit otherwise:
If you sand it down JUST ENOUGH, you will not need any glue to hold the new piece in place.
10. Re-install. Be sure to verify that the roller has full mobility before getting everything set up. You can install the knob interior bits incorrectly.
I followed DemonIAm's quick ten-step. It took me about an hour to sand, and I sanded it just barely enough so I had to use a block to press the new knurling over the old tab. Super tight.
All in all, I fucking love this thing. It just looks so nice once it is installed. I am amazed by the huge difference such a small thing makes.

Tony, thank you very much for the tutorial! I will be putting together a video as well to go along with those instructions as soon as i get my hands on another set. I totally forgot to do it when i was making the first one.
RuckkehrMiata, I'm glad you guys like it! Yeah, the knurls really gives the knobs a whole new feel. it feels a bit more substantial now vs the plastic feeling, wouldnt you agree?
Absolutely, in mine it even added just a bit of resistance to the rotation (likely from the added weight, which I realize is very small, but not negligent compared to the internal components), making it feel that much more solid.
In addition: It takes a part of the dash/car that generally goes so un noticed I have to look for where it is when I need to change it's setting, and makes it something quite attractive/noticeable.
