I am finishing my decal install and had a couple of questions. Based on what I could find in the Star magazine, Bob Geco's article in issue #6 of Pagoda World and the You Tube Video in the Technical Manual, I was trying to confirm from others that may have these decals on their cars already.
1) My 280 SL calls for a M 130 engine decal that should be placed on the right side of the valve cover but no clear advice as to exactly where on the valve cover it should go. A pic would be great. (See Photo)
2) The 2 decals that are placed on the emission boxes in the engine compartment should have the "Connection Scheme" one on the box closest to the engine right side up and the "Wiring Scheme" one should be placed on the box nearest the fender upside down. (http://[b]upside down[/b]). (See photo)
That seems a bit strange to me but Will Samples video shows it that way. I just wanted to confirm from others that have also done it that way or have an original decal showing it that way.
Many Thanks!

I can help with the valve cover decal as remnants of the original are still on my cover

I was just going to use a picture of Mike’s valve cover I took a few years ago. Mike saved me the trouble. Here is a picture of the relay decals. Since the mounting ears are attached to the same plate one will look backwards when viewed from the side.

Agree on what Svegel indicates for the metallic relay stickers.
For others - a point to note, this is for a 4-speed manual. The stickers/relays for the automatic versions are different.
