Get it done! Ill have a fewIt's a convincing endorsement for the original style of design, that's for sure. I must get hold of the supplier and place the order!
For the original 20th Anniversary stickers, I think we may only have had 50 in total to start with (split between external and internal), but we re-ordered several times, whenever we ran short. I'd be inclined to go for 100 this time round, maybe split 60:40.
I'm not really one for badges and stickers etc as I feel they generally cheapen the look of things but I must say I think that looks splendid and in that location too!Probably prefer 2 internal for me please, although 5 years on the external are still well, maybe down to bucket and sponge washing only.
Given the proposed new sticker has the dates 2000-2025 (whereas the original did not) then will the overall size of the sticker be increased (taller) or will it be the same size with the text and A2 silhouette being smaller? A larger one may impact where it can be placed (I think some have put theirs in the quarter lights).
The new stickers have been ordered and will hopefully arrive in the next couple of weeks. They will then be made available in the A2OC Shop. I'll announce on this thread once they are ready and available to buy. Thank you everyone for bearing with us, and I hope this lovely design will continue to grace our A2's for at least another 5 yearsWhat are the next steps for these stickers please?
Amazing @FinallyFiona and thank you!Further to my previous post above, there is another update
The designer of these stickers, @TYP 8Z, took on board the issues with the changed sizing and, on reflection, felt that the extra line showing the 2000-2025 dates was too heavy and detracted from the clean outline shape. We have therefore decided to revert to the simplest update of his much-loved design, which replaces '20th' with '25th'.

The 25th Anniversary stickers will therefore be exactly the same size as the 20th Anniversary stickers, so they will continue to fit perfectly between the outermost aerial wires in the lower rear screen in the internal application. They will also continue to be produced in white, which shows them off to their best advantage against (or through) the dark rear screen, or in the rear quarter windows.

Lifetime enthusiasts - Well 5 year lifetime enthusiasts at least - would have stickers side by side no?Great news @FinallyFiona and thank you to you and @TYP 8Z Have you any hints as to how to remove the old stickers?
Hi again Alan,Great news @FinallyFiona and thank you to you and @TYP 8Z Have you any hints as to how to remove the old stickers?
Now there's a thought ... for those that would like to do that, there are still some 20th Anniversary ones in the Shop - just sayin'Lifetime enthusiasts - Well 5 year lifetime enthusiasts at least - would have stickers side by side no?
Tom @2work's suggestion above would be exactly what I'd do, too.Great news @FinallyFiona and thank you to you and @TYP 8Z Have you any hints as to how to remove the old stickers?
As already suggested by @2work a bit of heat with a hairdryer and it should come off easily. It's important to clean the surface before applying the new one. I normally use Isopropyl alcoholGreat news @FinallyFiona and thank you to you and @TYP 8Z Have you any hints as to how to remove the old stickers?
That's what I will doLifetime enthusiasts - Well 5 year lifetime enthusiasts at least - would have stickers side by side no?
If I keep eating well, exercise and service my A2 diligently every year I might still have a chance to design the 50th Anniversary stickerFurther to my previous post above, there is another update
