commiting to memory, second lever forward, second lever forward, second lever forward...

I have made 3 different type decals to label the controls, the printing came out nice.
These are pretty bad pictures but you'll get the drift.

Style 1 goes next to where the e-brake pulls up & to one side. White print on clear decal just like the pic I posted earlier but sized to fit, could be a bit larger I think.
(please ignore the deplorable state of my center console)



Style 2 goes in front of the controls on the lower part of the console & line up with the appropriate lever. white print on clear decal.




Style 3 (my favorite) black decals w/ silver printing to go over the original direction set into the control bezel. Won't light up at night now, but don't remember mine ever lighting in the first place. I didn't do a decal for the defrost lever as it already is labeled understandably. I also did some of these w/ a font closer to the "DEF"




What do you all think? Between the 3 designs I should meet with most peoples tastes.
I'll make a bunch of these up & make them available in the near future.

Maybe I'll do some more of my windshield banners if people are interested. I can do any color.

I like style 2 - let me know how much and thanks for the work you did.

[DocGraphics]

I have made up about 20 sets of these.
A set has style 1 in 2 sizes, a style 2 & 3 different versions of style 3
I did change the print color on all to silver, looks cleaner.
I'll include all styles in the set so you can pick your favorite, share extras or use on 2nd spider, 3rd...

digitech, PM me your address & I'll send you a set.
Anyone else who would use them can do the same.

We'll call this a pay-it-forward, see what you started Jaime.

how much for the windshield one?

[DocGraphics]

Joe, I'm thinking $35 shipped for the window banner decal.
I can do most any color but the lighter colors will show up much better than darker.

Heater control decals are free for those who would use them.

[124JOE]

yes yes
i need your mailing address
and choice #2 for the heater control sticker

I have been remiss in not getting back to this post - my car has thrown me a curveball I've been trying to figure out.

Anyways, I received my heater decals in the mail as promised and they are beautiful, absolutely first rate! I'm very thankful and very proud to display 'em. As soon as I get my car sorted back out, I'll post a pic or two so you can see how they look.

Thanks again and might I suggest to anyone else receiving a set, throw a couple of dollars in the mail as I have done - they are very professionally done!

Thanks Russ, I figured if I was making them so my dumb a$$ could work the controls why not share so we can all save the mental distress of having to figure it out every time.
Making decals is what I do so if I was making 1 for me why not more to share, same amount of work.

[124JOE]

Come on folks, do you really need reminder stickers blemishing your controls so you can get the heat selectors in the right positions?

The triangles mean volume, not direction. Push or pull the lever towards the fat end of the triangle and get more of that thing. DEF means top vents. The other direction means top and floor. You can't get just floor on a FIAT, you get both, so there is no reason to use an intermediate (middle) position.
