I still have one :6: of mine of the rear window. Looks great.
I had one in both rear windows till some POS broke both passenger side windows in my truck. I am sure I bought 4 when I bought mine.... I just have to find them in the mess I have down here!!

I found them. I found them (y) (y)
Now I can replace the one on the passenger side rear side window to match with the driver side.
Doug, I dont remeber, do I peel off the backing first or just wet, apply, and then peel off backing??

They are more or less peel and stick. First make sure that the area that you are applying
the decal is free of dirt and wax. If you are placing it on the rear window then just make
sure you use a good glass cleaner. If you are putting the decal onto the body then use
something that will remove all the wax. (Providing that you wax your AV) One test is to
take a bit of masking tap, and if that sticks then the surface is most likely clean.

I used masking tape to set a reference line for the top of the decal. To make sure it was
on straight, I also made some marked where I wanted the corners to be onto the tape.

The decal is sandwiched between two layers of backing. Peel the backing off; be careful
to make sure that the decal remains stuck to the front backing. Keep an eye out for the
little items; such as the middle of the E, they like to stick to the backing. Peel the
backing off slowly and if you see items sticking to the backing then return the backing
and press gently to make the item stick to the front backing. Once the backing is
removed be careful not to touch the backside of the decal it will stick to what ever it
touches. Apply decal to the AV and being careful to place the decal down flat (with no
air pockets), and straight. Once the decal contacts the AV it cannot be repositioned.

Before you remove the top-backing take a credit card and use it like a squeegee to
press down the whole decal. Little items need more attention to make sure they get good contact. Use the squeegee to chase out any little air pockets.

Once you are happy that you have pressed the whole decal down then pull up the backing slowly. Pull at right angles to the surface of the decal. If you see any part of the decal lift then stop and press the backing back down and use the squeegee to press the item onto the AV. (Little items are more acceptable to this) Once the backing is removed then go get the wife so she too can OH and AHHH at the new decal.
