The most complex question ever asked on this forum!
So please, please don't laugh, but......
I'm on my second rear Disco sticker - ordered the one to go on the outside of the car due to tinted windows....
HOW ON EARTH DO I FIT THE THING!!!!!!!!!!!!!
I thought you peel off one side, then put it on, then peel off the other side? If so, then why on earth can't I get it to work!!!!!!!!
All I can manage to do is peel of a bit of the front and that's it
Is there an instruction manual for this on the Wiki? Has Wiggs or Disco Mikey spent hours creating a write-up with detailed photographs?
This is normally the type of job I get SWMBO to do, but can't ask her as it means she'll get a chance to look closely at the Disco and may spot some subtle changes
PLEASE HELP ME!!!!Iggy/Ieuan

Been a while since I did mine, but IIRC you are right that you first peel off the back, then stick the thing on, then peel off the front.
The hard part is getting all the letters to stick to the front part rather than the back. You might have to "help" them stick to the front bit as when you are peeling the back bit off you will find some of the letters might stick to that rather than the front bitDennis

Nobody tell him ... as this could go on for a while
I have only ever fitted internal ones so in my case the back was the front and the front was the back
What was the question Cheers Ian

this is where I embarrass myself. the first sticker i ordered, I did not notice that there was a colour and ordered the black. This was a problem given I have a black car with tinted windows I then ordered the white version and only put it on yesterday despite it arriving before xmas. I applied it to the middle top of the rear hatch. At this point my next door neighbour came out and started to speak to me. I thought I did well until i noticed that the sticker said "disco3.co uk" i.e. no full stop between .co.uk. I found it on the sticker I had and applied it separately, but it went on ok. when I get five mins I will upload photo.
thanks

Watch out you get the letters in the right order should any come off or you might display 3 Ducks coo IA vaccine does not stop you catching a virus, or passing it on, or getting ill from it, really ill.

Thanks to those who didn't laugh
And for you others
SWMBO went to bed early tonight, so I crept outside and tried in the dark with the aid of a torch and assisted by Max the Springer......No go, nothing was possible as it was too dark and I can't peel off the back as I've bitten my nails with worry about what SWMBO will say when she see's the new numberplate
PLEASE HELP ME!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
I've even tried plugging in my IID tool, but running through the menu I can find nothing that mentioned 'Disco Sticker - Fault Clearing"
My head hurts now and I need another Whiskey
I'll try again in the morningIggy/Ieuan
