Default Glove box lettering

I have some yellow 'corvette' lettering above my dash box that's now starting to peel off. Is this (corvette stick on letters) an aftermarket item, or something that I buy from the stealership?

Aftermarket, more than likely.

I had the same issue. The heat inside the car causes them to lift.

I used drop of adhesive in the indentation. Maybe not a smart idea if you ever intend to remove them though.
