This would be a little add-on that clamps to a stereo that has up-down volume buttons. It would be a knob with a mechanism inside that makes it so when you turn it clockwise, a rod inside it goes up and down, and when you turn it counterclockwise, another rod does the same thing. When mounted on a stereo, the rods would repeatedly push the up/down buttons to change the volume. Multiple sizes available, for different stereos.

The mechanism for securing it would probably be adhesive.

might actually have a use for people of limited mobility dealing with small buttons.
