OK,

A piece of the acrylic we use will fit there, and I did get the dimensions of the window around the VIN number. 4 7/8" x 1 1/8"
So that means we can make something for it.

Awesome news ! So will it be easily removable with a tab or something ? Also will
it shift around while driving or will it be pretty much fixed until desired removal ?

I havent gotten that far yet. I still need to make some kind of estimate on what the entire area under that glass is. It cannot be adhered, so a rubber backing might be in order. I need to check it out some more once all of our snow melts.

I would be interested in a blank black piece to blend in with the rest of the dash.

I am all for it. I keep my vin covered at all times and to have something nice to cover it would be better than what I'm currently using.

Monday, I will make my final measurements.

If you guys know what you want to place on them get a specification list together for me.

Thanks, Roger

Can you make mine with a flat or matte black background, and etch or insert Z28 in mirror acrylic, and insert the "Z" in black mirror acrylic?
I want it to look like my badges y'all made me.

We were getting ready for the CNC mill to arrive tomorrow.
I have this piece drawn, and it will take me maybe until Friday to get you guys some pictures.

Thanks, Roger

True but for the do-it-yourselfers who never take their car to a shop (which I believe accounts for the majority of tech), this would not be an issue.
