I would recommend having the decals sheets applied to a backer while the adhesive is still good.
I had it done professionally (around $100) by a signage shop, applied on a lexan sheet cut to decals measurements. No bubbles no wrinkles, neat job. After that they can wait for a while if you store them flat.

Then and only then ..  ::)  you will have to drill a 2mm hole centered (±) for each, use the screws supplied with the kit and apply the legends
approx 5-10 hours depending on your stamina!   :D

A good 10hrs at least! I used black acrylic sheet (avoids masking/painting the edges) and applied the transfers to it. A good tip is to put a few drops of Johnson Baby Shampoo into a tumbler of water. Then thoroughly wet the transfer and acrylic before mating them. The oil acts as a flattening agent and allows the  transfer to slide and not grab. You can then use a flat plastic tool such as an epoxy mixer to run over the surface and remove any air bubbles.

I also made up a small locating cylinder the exact size of the CB circle, centre drilled it and used this as a guide to drill the screw holes. There is very little tolerance  :(

Well worth the effort though

I will have to either get going on mine and use it though I have a 732 now or pass on to someone else who wants to use them.

I bought my CB panels at http://www.flybycockpits.com/. They are beautiful and detailed finishing.

I have saved a lot of work and time with it ... Only I just have to make the stickers with the Amp numbers.

Scott: Worth every effort ! especially in a busy environment like the 200.
Will look terrific!
Jack  :D
