Got a quote from my dealer for new window raise/lower switches. Silly price. Any suggestion of removing the stickiness?

Having used Stickynomore and StickyRX I would recommend the latter.

Both had good service but Sticky RX went the extra inch and the finish was excellent,

Not cheap but definitely the best option if you want a proffessional finish.

For the DIY approach CillitBang grease remover was the best i found but I only used it on a handbrake grip which had become sticky. Personally i wouldn't use this method on any parts which had lettering or any real detail.
