Looking for original'ish DMG burgundy buttons

Post by andershp » Thu Jun 20, 2019 12:30 am

Hi all

Just got the Retromodding.com Burgundy Button kit https://www.retromodding.com/collection ... 5390776013 but these are, unfortunately, not really close to the colors of the original DMG buttons, much more purple and not as deep a color.

Can anyone recommend a place to get original or very close to original burgundy buttons?

What I'm looking for is deep vibrant burgundy buttons like this:

What I got from Retromodding looks less vibrant, like this (talking about color only):

Any tips? Where did you buy your buttons? Can you show pictures for me?
