Hi,
I have reached an important point in my life and before I go any further I thought it prudent to request some "expert" advice....
After abusing this
forum for free for sometime I finally signed up!!! now I get that glary red strip at the top of my browser....not that I am complaining (I wouldn't do that I am POM!) - now let's not get sidetracked on this fact......back to my important decision....some may call it one of life's "crossroads"
The question is "where to place my Exploreoz sticker" - yes I can see you all jump in and say "ON THE CAR".....but you see the car we may only own for 10 years or so at best, hhhhmmmm; then again lets say twenty....it is a Patrol after all!
But the fridge will be with me for a lifetime, when I sold my last car I lost (destroyed) all the stickers on it trying to remove them; it was a sad moment.....so many k's just floating in the bucket!
So do I put the sticker on the car, which could be destroyed at any moment by a wreckless idiot with "my precious" (the sticker) or safely on the fridge but mostly out of sight......?
Thanks for your help!
Rod

Rod,
Well who's going to see it on the fridge?
Anyway, you just need to buy something (anything) from the Exploroz
shop and you will get another sticker with your delivery.
So, as you can see, you can in fact, do both:-)
Welcome to the mad house Rokkitt!

Well Rokkitt Rod,
You admitted to being a Pom, the safest place for an ExploreOz sticker is on your soap!!
Besides that, you get a new sticker every time the
membership is renewed so, the car and the fridge are both good!

Stick it on the fridge, That way you can proudly display it everytime you get a beer. What a talking point around the
camp fire with your mates.

I have 3...... two on the Patrol, one on the Trailblaza...... haven't thought of where to stick the next sticker.... ( and no... I'm NOT asking for suggestions of where to stick it!!! LOL...)
That may lead to a whole new quandary of my own!!

Just buy another vehicle Brian. Heather won't allow me to put it on the baby car though, but the Falcon ute yes, Snowy - Willies Ex-Cruiser yes, Nick's green GU yes and was on his 80 too. I see EO stickers every day here. Of course Moses has them front and back.

I'm with John,
Front and back on the Patrol and even slung one on the wife's Jack without her knowing.......but when she saw it......DAMN that hurt.
Worth it to see EO everywhere I look.
Welcome Rokkit, put it on the car.

Do a search here for "stolen fridge" - the frequency of fridge theft should make it clear that you will keep the sticker much longer if you put it on your fridge rather than your Patrol (who bothers to steal a Patrol - calm down, I owned a Patrol long before you did.)

I was thinking along the same line and didn't know what to do. Until my woman said" why don't you glue the sticker to a alum plate( round) and glue that to the car with silicone. It looks good and you can move it later without damage"
So I did and I tell everybody it was my idea :-)

You obviously purchased an Engel and yes that is worthy of a sticker.
Order another from the
shop for the car, they are free you know, yes that is no charge.

Everybody wants to tell you where to stick it Rod .
PLEASE put it on the rear window as I am getting sick of perving on the back of 4WDs and not seeing ExplorOz stickers . I have only seen two in three years and I am getting depressed about it .

Rokkitt,
I have one on the rear dropside of the cruiser, one on the trailblaza, one on the chescold, one on the house fridge, one on the
toilet seat, one on the tinny and about eight more sitting in drawers around the house awaiting dispersal.

I am not a "sticker on the car putter" - dunno why, just ain't - so I put it on my tool box. Least I see it!
I have seen Willie around Epping I reckon, but he won't have seen mine as the car has not broken down.
Shame.

No - haven't done any trips with Traction 4 people - just paid them heaps of money to maintain my car - which I consider well spent.
Keep your eyes peeled for my tool box! It's a white 80s GXL, and I have the rear wheel carrier off at the moment to make the toolbox more visible!!

Hi Rod,
Please let me know your
membership number and I will send you another sticker!
That way you can put one on the car and one on the
fridge?
Does that sound like a good idea?
You do know that you can just ask for more stickers. We don't mind sending more out if people ask for them!
Thanks

Keep on sending them Jackie. Will need another one soon, but it will be where it is seen rather than the
fridge, even though it is an Engel. Two on Moses and his wheel cover too on the back,

Stickers are on the way!
In relation to the ones to look like wheel covers Bob, we are currently looking into larger sizes. Probably not quite that big, but we'll see what we can come up with!

Thank's for that Jackie, i did not expect them the actual size of the wheel cover but the same size as the standard would be suffice i think, thanks again,Bob.
