Desde logo, opto por traducilo pero sen seguir as metáforas de coches
que pouco nos poden inspirar en galego.
Podería facerse analoxía co "mando da tele", que tamén ten botóns. É
dicir "mando de botóns", reducido a "mando". Con todo, non me
convence. Gústame máis a idea de asimilalo cos instrumentos musicais
que teñen teclas ou botóns, como por exemplo a zanfoña ou moito
mellor, o acordeón.

De aí sairía «caixa de botóns»
Aquí chámanlle botonería (?)

Por iso, tamén podería adaptarse "botoadura" (nunca podería ser
botoeira e tamén me parece que "botoaxe" é un invento innecesario,
aínda que se rexistre teoricamente). A solución portuguesa "panel"
tamén valería pero iría sendo cada vez menos precisa. Sería así panel,
cadro de botóns > botoadura
Temos a triste «vantaxe» de que ningún dos dous están recollidos ou
definidos oficialmente en galego.
En resumo, propoño: caixa de botóns, caixa botoeira ou "botoadura"
