Default Location of window sticker for show

For the ones of you that have window sticker where do you attached it to your car for a show. I have a C2 coupe. If I put it on the drivers door glass then that may block the folks view of inside car. If on the windshield, then maybe people will lean over to read and scratch car. May be on the passenger door glass?

For a judging event, Bloomington Gold wants the window sticker attached to the top inside of the passenger door window, last time I went anyway. NCRS does not judge window stickers and they are not to be attached to the car for judging. Any other show it is dealer's choice. Typically, inside top of pass door window or passenger side inside of windshield

All the cars I saw at Bloomington Gold 2015 were the opposite; they had stickers on the driver's side if displayed, not the passenger side.

I stick it down in the rubber molding on the inside of the LH side rear window in the split window -- all the way to the front of the window.

You can barely see it in this, the only pic I have of it in the window. This way I can leave the side windows down so people can enjoy the interior. Believe me, 99% of people haven't a clue where a 60s window sticker originally resided.

When I was there with my 64 years ago the instructions were to place the window sticker on the upper inside of the PASS door window. Reviewing other posts on this it seems more recent info is that the window sticker should be placed where it was indicated in the AIM, so for example, a '65 should be on the driver's side door window. Later year cars like 70's apparently were on the pass side. So would defer to Bloomington current guidelines for this answer as I have no recent info. I do recall seeing stickers in various positions, I just was told to put mine on the pass side. I doubt it would be a deduct, just held on with tape, move it if the judge says wrong side

This is the correct factory placement of the window sicker on a 1962, and that's where I put mine when I show it.

Yeah the only reason I knew this was I just started showing with mine late in the season and I researched my '15 event pics to see what people were doing. I think I would have rather it on the passenger side so people could see the LH interior better. I will likely put it there at generic shows in the future.

People just love the things.

Well I found a reference to Bloomington wanting the sticker placed as in the AIM but not positive what the actual rule states. Anyway I checked my AIM and sure enough for a '67 it goes on the driver's side so that would be as Vettebuyer noted

How would it block people's vision less on the passenger side less than the driver's side? It's the same size on either window, isn't it?

You are right, it would block the same. My reaction was that if I had to pick a side where I wanted people to see in a window with less obstruction, it was the driver's side. Not that big a difference just personal preference, I think.
