I'd like a smoke screen and/or an oil slick button a la Spy Hunter.

Ok, so there is definitly a market for this. Now time for step 2. Should we e-mail different vinyl venders suggesting these stickers? Do the venders check out the forums? What do you think?

Would vinyl really be neccessary? It's not like you're actually pushing the button all that much. Well, maybe you would if there was a fancy sticker on it.

I had invisioned more along the lines of a big sheet w/ a bunch of different little round stickers like the ones teachers use. Sort of like these.

Exactly. Probably the most cost-efficient to make.

I thought the OP was talking about the stickers the person from this post put on the black buttons that don't do anything (one on the AC control, one by the shifter).

Those alternate toggle switch labels are pretty sly too (smoke, oil slick, and that ejector seat would definitely come in handy), though you'd have to train your copilot as to what the switches actually do.

Ah ha. . . I think there were people talking about both, but now going back reading the OP, I see. . .

On my 2005, the center circle is pretty small and kind of textured. A sticker would be tough to keep on, it would seem. Although nail polish color may work along with a sticker above. . .

I have had a ton of requests for decals like these. I'm working on the designs for the decals to go over the toggles for both R53 and R56.

So keep an eye out for them. Some will be juts vinyl stickers and some will be high quality 3D domed decals.

Thanks for starting this post and I will do everything I can to get these up and ready very soon. I like the idea of doing the Mario cart ones to so I may either include them to the package or make them separate.

i think the mario kart ones would be awesome as well... you could probably sell them per sheet by category... like "spy stuff" and a "mario kart" themed set with various stickers. I think the mushroom would fit in well for the sport button. and DSC could be the Banana.

I'm still working on these. As soon as I'm caught up with all my orders I will be on a major design frenzy.

I'll keep you all updated.
