Quoted from zacaj:

Over the weekend I evaporusted the door. All the rust did go away, but so did a lot of the paint [quoted image]
Received the DE 2-switch assembly, thanks a bunch to dmacy!
Was surprised to see that neither of the switches is a toggle (for the auto up/manual down). Not sure if that's a DE thing or if that just wasn't part. Luckily the little metal U thing from the old switches stuck right in to the new switch and now it toggles fine. The new DE 2 switches seem to be compatible with the older williams switches, so I pried them out of their 2 wide mounting bracket, and inserted them into the williams 3-bracket. Perfect fit. I could technically buy another of the 2-switch assemblies to get a third switch for the HS reset, but I think I'll live with it for now..[quoted image]

Rustoleum hammered black will have that door looking like normal again, that's what I've used on my Whirlwind and Earthshaker.
