It's not a decal. Just paint the area that's etched before removing the protective paper.

It's actually "etched" in the screen. Macgyver did the windscreen lights, not sure but you can have most engraving places etch them.

Mine is etched by Rick, but he isn't allowed to do it anymore (thanx to Honduh).

I've seen some vinyl decals on E-bay that would work well now.

Some engravers don't wanna enfringe on copyrights, so it is hit and miss.

Good Luck,
Hockey

What is causing it to light up red/white in those night pics? Is that just the engraving or is it some kind of film? Definitely an awesome look! What's the overall cost?

Where do you get the S2000 decal?
I have an etched decal (larger than the ones shown above) 9 X 1.5 inches. You can find it on ebay , search for "S2000 windscreen", they cost about $9. Install time about 3 minutes.

The previous version of Windscreen Lights has now been replaced with this:


Since this is a fairly new piece, I have yet to try it in an actual windscreen. It uses the same LEDs from the previous digital version, so brightness isn't an issue, but all of the intelligence and control is now on one board. Two of these are actually cheaper than previous versions, and can be installed by the end-user, rather than requiring shipment to me.

If your screen isn't etched, you can use frosted glass-style stickers made at any local sign shop.

How tall are you.

I have a 7/8 sitting in my basement. Maybe this winter I'll get around to installing it . . .

MacGyver, how much is the new unit ?

BTW I've got a couple of these with the etched s2000 logo, lying in my room. I bought one and it broke during shipment so I made a few coopies locally. PM me your offer if you are interested.
