    Okay, got the new door VIN sticker in today and it took just over six weeks. The layout is correct to the original, but the original looked like the specs were manually typed in. The copy looks like it was done on a computer. So if you needed one to look original, this might not work, but for me it is perfect and would buy again.

        Was thinking if one wanted to, you could cut off the white edge and round the corners and that would help a little. I will slap mine on as is!!!!!!

          Yeah your right.
          The main thing I see is the font's are all wrong on it, (well besides the parts that are typed in).

          It just seams like a long lead time to wait on this, as well as the mistakes in it.
          The part where it says "Motor vehicle safe-
          ty standards in effect"
          is really off.

          Thank you for posting this Fullsizejeeper.

            I was pretty disappointed in the label I got...NOT even close to looking right.

            I mentioned this earlier in thread...

              Hey Babywag, did you ever find another source that was closer to the original? I'am going with what I have, but others might want something that looks factory and would be nice to have another option in this thread. Thanks in advance.

                I didn't try...figured I'd just roll with it. Nobody ever looks @ them really.
                I'd imagine could find someone who's good with photoshop to redo one.
                Then just send the file to a printer and have one made.

                  IIRC CristClapper went that route with his restoration?
