Well, I just received first batch of decals today. The fit is spot on... but the finish is not was i was hoping for. Decals are too darn glossy with the laminate overlay.Will try to source matte finish laminate next, to better match the dull finish on the switch housings.
That said, if anyone still wants a set, I'll be happy to let a set go for $5.50 just to recoup my out-of-pocket. I have 19 sets; the 2-sets per card thing didn't work.
Now, back to the @%&! drawing board.

I dont think they are all that bad really...and if you dyed or repaint the housings before adding the decals they may very well be perfect!!MY BIKES..1977 GS 750 B, 1978 GS 1000 C (X2)

At $5.50 that decal for the ignition cylinder is worth the price of admission to me. so put me down for a set and let me know where to send the funds.De-stinking Penelope [url]http://thegsresources.com/_forum/showthread.php?t=179245[/url]

Why not a laser cut stencil what lays on the old switch, followed by some white spray paint? Would be simple and match the original look exactly.Ed
To measure is to know.

I said I was in, so I am in, paypal and I will get the cash off to you right away.
Ed, you read my mind, the reason I want a set is to use as a stencil to paint the graphics on, as per OEM.
The instrument shop here at the airport does lazer engraving to minute detail, going to give them the decals to use as a template.
