Are these tags/labels available from someone in the community or were they a one-off by a PO?
They seem to be glued onto the original inserts and are not lit. I am missing the headlight and Bat Boost tags.

Thanks Billy. What I need is 2 or 3 of the OEM black plastic frames. I don't need them to be lighted. I intend to redo the dash eventually so I just want to temporarily fill the holes I have missing. I can always relabel them as needed.

Call out the 3D printers. Another great low production rate reproduction idea.
Very nice labels can be made with the Brother P-Touch label maker.

Hmmm... Thanks. May be a good reason to invest in a 3D printer and some software.

And,

If you have one of the Brother labelers that can talk to a computer (USB), you can take black letter on white tape and print it reverse to get translucent letters on a black background.

I started working on designing those bezels once before, I will try to get back on it soon.

The HARD part is the little metal clips that hold the bezels and fiber optic cable in place,

My original thought was to design a replacement with an LED inside vice the fiber optic.

If you need labels off a Brother label maker. send me an email, I do have one, and it actually talks to my Laptop via wireless. I am no master at using it, but if it can do what you need, I can give it a try.

it is one of the edge models:

Thanks all. I just want some bezels to temporarily cleanup the dash until I rebuild the entire dash. The existing labels are engraved plastic glued to the bezels. I didn't know if they were available somewhere or done by the PO.
I'm just trying to cleanup a PO redo until I can do my own. My plan is to convert to electric wipers on the column, full gauges, different heating/ac controls, etc. So, the labels and lighting won't be needed.
