Does anyone make speedo decals on contact adhesive? I have know luck with the water slide decals.

Perhaps you can print the ones Bob posted on contact paper and trim them to fit. You have to adjust your font size to get the numbers the right size.

I have them as jpg and tif files. I have resolutions from 300 to 1600 dpi. They are the correct size and can be printed on anything your printer can handle. You can find decal paper, adhesive paper ... online. I scanned in the numbers from an original speedometer one number at a time. Then I cleaned them up with Photoshop and scaled them to match the original. I will email the jpg or tif file to anyone that would like one. Note that the high resolution tif file is 22 MBytes. I do have a few decals that I made for myself. The decal paper that I used was not completely opaque so the area should be painted white before the decal is put on.
