Question Where to put my round PCA decal on an '84 Targa???

Oh, the dilemna....

I want to put a round PCA decal on my '84 Targa - but the rear window does not have room due to the defroster wires.

I am hesitant to put it on the side windows - as I can't imagine it will hold up well as I raise and lower my windows.

Any suggestions? Corner of the windshield? - which on my car is a bit "white" at the edges...

I usually see people either put the sticker in the lower left hand side of the windshield or just behind the targa bar on the driver side.

I didn't put a lot of thought into it. I stuck it on the right side of the Targa rear glass. Guess it's over the defrost wires.

You could do what I did and forego that tiny circlular emblem and buy the nice 3 inch enamaled PCA badge. The decal fades faster then the badge by the way! I attached it to my rear engine deck intake grill (left side) and it looks great. If you opt for the decal, the drivers side rear window corner has always been the spot I am familiar with.

I put mine in the corners of the rear window, just behind the targa bar. PCA on one side, Region sticker on the other. That was the only place that doesn't seem to obstruct visibility. I thought I would be bothered by the defroster wires running across the graphics, but they aren't very noticeable.

I like the idea of the rear window. Will try that out...

Thanks for the feedback on such a minor subject.

And it's not like I ever use the Rear Defroster anyway.... when it's that cold the 911 stays inside.....
