I couldn't find any locally so just got them from the UK. Not very expensive and I doubt the price would've been cheaper hee anyway.

BTW - what's the go with fixing them. Do you just stick on and leave them, or do you stick on and spray over with clear coat?

Usually the deal is to stick thm over the top, Use a bit of water and detergent in a spray bottle so you can move them into the right place as you will never get them were you want them on the first go.

Shaun, Won't the detergent interfere with the adhesion?

Pete,

I've never done them under clear coat. I guess it would be possible as long as they dont react. My only concern would be, that stickers do tend to shrink over time esp if left in the sun. Dont know how this would go with the clear over them???

As for the detergent, you only need the slightest bit. I just used some washing up liquid in a spray bottle. First I cleaned the car, then wiped it with panel wipe. Spray a fine mist on the car and position the stickers. You will be able to move them a little due to the water but you should aim to get it right first time. Remember, the water mix is only there as insurance.. When they are in position, use a squeegee to push the water out from under them and any remaning bubles. A hairdryer and a small scalple can help if you have any pesky bits. Good luck.
