Well the buttons have arrived.
First impressions: the visible portion looks great. The plastic on the back half of them is a little softer, though. I transplanted the brass clips into them and put the buttons into their slots on the faceplate. I'm just guessing how they go in-- clips down, right? The buttons are exact matches for what's left of the originals in size and shape. They seem to be a bit loose and sloppy, though. Maybe I've got them in wrong.
Anyway, here it is:

It's not how bad you mess up, it's how well you can recover.
