That could have been disasterous. I am glad nothing happened because of this mistake.

I am surprised that this could happen. I have a '68 C model and have taken off the placard before for cosmetic repair issues. I did not think that this could be done. As I am looking in the service manual right now I can see by the diagram that it actually looks like it could be reversed. But then you would be reading the words upside down or if it was flipped the words would be backwords.

The D model changed the shape so that it only fits one way.
