Default Urethane Rear Lettering for Camaro

Just got my orange urethrane letters for the rear of my 97 Anv. SS Convertible from RK Sport. Going to put them on tomorrow. Anyone out there used the same before on their camaro, firebird, or vette? Have any tips that I should know.....what not to do.
Thought I would ask as I really don't want to screw up a $55 set of lettering. I know you got to clean the indented surface where the letters go with alcohol to get rid of any residue, but I guess my question is, do they go in easy, or stick to the first thing they touch. Thanks!

lol @ you paying $55 for them.
they're going to stick pretty easily... make sure to have something near by to keep a corner up so you can adjust as you go. make sure to clean the area completely with rubbing alcohol, like you said. if you leave just a bit of moisture on the car, it'll be to your advantage... you should be able to slide them around just a little
good luck

Thanks for the comments. Was fairly easy. Cleaned indents with alcohol and inserted letters. The urethrane lettering filled in the spaces nicely. Before and after photos.......

i dont think that u will have a problem, they are machined to fit perfectly just line up the edges and put them in, but make sure you clean the area before hand with the wipe they provide you.
