    I wonder if we could be really subversive, and each order say 10 stickers. Stick one on our rig, and the other 9 on random 4bys that look like they get off road from time to time. Initially I thought to do this without asking permission. However, I can't run too fast, so have decided I'll just approach the driver and have a conversation and ask if they'd stick one on. Obviously it would depend on cost of the stickers - my generosity and principles only take me so far :-)

    Getting back to my original question, Taslucas, how much would it cost me to have a sticker saying 'No Snatch' and an arrow pointing right for me to put on the back step?
    Probably looking at $8 for a one-off sticker (around 200-300mm wide, single colour). But as for the other stickers, if we can decide on a single design then i can do heaps at a time and get the price right down.

    You would like to think that any responsible club would pick this up (will be showing these to my club for sure) also maybe we could get 4wd tv to run with this promoting it as a nissanpatrol.com.au forums initiative.
    Taslucas any way stickers could possibly have proudly sponsord by www.nissanpatrol.com.au along the bottom somewhere?

    Probably could but the vinyl lettering can only go down to about 10mm high. If i get them digitally printed then it can be as small as it wants but the cost of the stickers would go up.

    Thanks Taslucas, I'll order one with the other sticker when the time comes - after the poll. Is there any chance you could add that sticker as an optional extra in that poll? (to gauge if there is any interest in it apart from little old me :-) )

    Many people are keen on stickers, so....... what wording/colouring do you think should be on it?

    If anybody has any info at all regarding deaths, injuries or damage caused by towballs, please add it here.

    This includes web links. The more publicity this subject gets, the more it should sink in to peoples' heads about the dangers and consequences.

    My idea will go outside the square.
