Where can I buy the shift decal for the dash?
I see that The Thing Shop offers a set of decals, but I just need a new one of the shift pattern for the dash. |

Yeah, the one from lanerussell is too large compared to the original.
GI, please let me know if you have an extra-I am looking for one with black ink like the original.
Thanks |

Hey, guys..
We recently approached these decals again, and they now match the OG factory versions in every way. We have them in stock.

This is from a 1973 owners manual. You can see the location of the sticker halfway up the page on the left:

Last night at our Cruise Night I had a National Street Rod Association Vehicle Safety Inspection done on my 74 THING. I got a total of 23 points plus 3 extra. Which was perfect plus. Item 18 on the list is Shift Pattern and it has to be on all manual transmission cars except 3 speed. So now I have a NSRA safety sticker in my front windshield.

I printed a run of these decals - black type on clear vinyl. The yellow spot in the right corner is just a reflection. Send me a PM if you want one.

Thanks for your offer as well! |
