Re: overhead console button lettering

I forget...is that lettering on the surface? Or are the letters also stamped in? Its been awhile since I looked at my overhead since its still in my 87. I gotta get up the nerve to cut holes in my headliner and transfer it over haha.

Re: overhead console button lettering

I would think that good quality transfer decals (vinyl letters) would work. Get a local print shop to make you a set, rub them on, and see how well they hold up. Shouldn't cost more than $20 or so.
