Console Data Plate
I went back and forth on how to do this and finally took the model airplane approach.
Printed out the entire data set on decal paper. Important to do it all at once to get the alignment right. Cut out a piece big enough to get your fingerprints out where they won't show.
Looks like this:
Trim away the excess with a new X-Acto blade and put it right over the existing data plate. Debated shooting it with clear but decided this was so easy if it gets messed up I'll just do it again. Now the rest of my console looks kind of humble.
Note the new gauges and the iPod install which I finally got around to. Who needs a radio anyhow?
