Pioneer PL-514, 516, 518 Plinth Decal Sets

I'm thinking of doing a wood veneer project on my Pioneer PL-518. I've seen a lot of wood veneer PL-5xx projects and think the wood looks MUCH better than the original gray/silver vinyl (or whatever material it is) veneer. However, I'd like to keep the original lettering on the plinth. I found a source that sells rub-on decal sets for the PL-514, 516, and 518 turntables. They're available in black, white, metallic silver, metallic gold, foil silver, and foil gold.

I just thought I'd pass this along in case anyone might be interested.

Disclaimer: I have no affiliation with the source...…..

Thanks,
Joe

Well, you didn't provide us with a source either.

Wayner,

No, I didn't provide a source. I tried that last night and the post got moved to "Dollars and Sense" because of the link to the source. I thought the post would reach more interested parties if in "Turntables" so I deleted the original post and re-posted without the link. I'll send a PM with the source.

Thanks,
Joe
 
You don't have to link it to make a strong suggestion as to who it is or, for that matter, even name the source
 
I see this is 4 years old now and google doesn't return any rub-on decals for a search. There's a source on the 'bay selling them on an alloy plate, but if a plain decal is available that'd be preferable. Does anybody know if the original source still exists?
 
I've thought about printing my own inkjet water slide decals but getting the font right would be hit and miss. I have a 518 I'd love to make a new plinth for.
