Dot Matrix question (Page 1/1)

Folks

I have been trying (unsuccessfully) to find a good condition 5 speed shifter plate. I understand that this piece takes a beating from having people rest their hands/forearm on it when driving.

From what it appears, the "dot matrix" pattern is just printed on the plastic. I sell machinery that cuts such printed material, and could easily reproduce the color and pattern, and have them CNC cut as a sticker, so we could apply it to the plastic

Any interest in this? I am not looking to make money with it, just want to cover whatever costs I need to pay the printer and CNC knife cutting guy to make me some stickers.

Any interest in this? Would match factory look and be a "fresh" sticker that would go over the existing face plates.

Correct me if I am wrong, but the plastic parts are the same from 84-88, correct? So I am guessing there is no real shortage of the face plates, just the dot matrix specific ones?

A lot of the radio surrounds are cracked, a lot of the shifter plates have markes from cigarettes, people dropping things on them ........... these are the pieces most people are looking for,
