Didn't you say you read the archive?

Yes, you did... :D

I have fixed caps for fellow SDS-V users before. My local electronics 
shop has a perfect match. They're not super cheap, but on the other 
hand, if a few makes the SDS-V looks nice it's worth it. Price? As I 
recall they're about 50 p each.

They even have red, black, green etc if you want to change the looks. I 
got a mixed set of colours that had fallen off my Psionics gates. 
Apparently a popular type of knobs/caps in the UK since Psionics are UK 
based too and also uses lin 3 in the XLR for "hot".
