I think it's not the same. Maybe the glosser would change the color and look some

There are 4 tabs holding them in place. You could, as the above post mentions, pull them sum biches out. But I wouldn't want to risk breaking mine. Your safest (see; hardest) bet is to pull the dash to get to the tabs.

Hopefully these pics illustrate what I'm saying

Just a thought but maybe don't spray the inside totally. Since that is the part you will be touching and you can't really see it when standing next to it. Just an idea as my handles are already black so no need to spray.
