    not e30, but should be easy....maybe

    OK so the guys on volvospeed are useless for this kind of request. Had to buy a beater DD, and there isn't a whole lot of reference for volvo 850's (non-turbo).

    I did my best to take a picture of the sticker under the hood of my 93 850 glt manual tranny and this is what I got. I played around in paintshoppro for a little while trying to reduce it to a black and white line drawing by reducing colors to 2, and running a high pass filter; but alas I suck and it became unreadable. Anyone good at photoshop who can clean this picture up to have a crisp black and white line drawing that you can read clearly and is 2-color? I don't have photoshop and I think paintshop isn't up to the task, or I'm completely inept (highly likely).

    Thanks in advance.

        uggh. I might just order the decal, I have the part #. If they still make it I can scan a nice copy, without it stuck to a compound curve on the worst most unaccessable / poorly lit place on the hood, with thirteen years of abuse,

          OK, this is the best I could do without redrawing, the problem really is the curve and the flash, if you want it I can redraw it.

            sweet, thank you, don't redraw it, not worth the time, this should work just fine.
