The label on my '79 3000S heater control panel is a bit tired and scratched so I'm looking to replace it



Are these available ready made or can anyone point me in the direction of someone who can make these up?

The original is black vinyl glued to the panel and the green lettering is translucent and is lit from behind so it can be seen in the dark.

Thanks for any suggestions,

GB

Hi,
I think these are Ford.......Granada or Mk4 Zepher/zodiac, so the Ford restorers may have something.....

The control is Ford but I suspect the label is TVR's own ?


If you find someone to print some I'll have one please wink

Thanks Glen, I've sent a question to DMB Graphics so we'll see what their answer is.

DMB have confirmed that they can supply the decal with the TVR graphics - here's a draft they sent:-



I'm sending him my old one so that he can match the green colour a little better than the light green in the draft.

Minimum order is 5 and cost will be the same as the Escort decal (£6.99 + £1.20 postage).

Form an orderly queue and let me know how many you want! (I'll be ordering 5 anyway)

PS - thanks for the link to DMB Glen cool

Hi Glen, you can have the PH one for free but I'll charge you for the one on the TVR forum biggrin

Hi Frank, if this is the LHD configuration then DMB probably do them for LHD Escorts. They only require an order for 5 for a new graphic so how many LHD M's can you find that need a new decal?! If you send me a photo then I can check back with DMB.

Hi,

If there's one available I would like to have one please.

My 3000S is currently half paint stripped and getting a well deserved make over, and this will smarten the dash no end.

Regards
SteveD

Before you get these made, may be worth phoning Doug at D G. As I know they had a pile of them.
Cheers. Ian
