Window decal that can removed??

[Salty]

Here is a part of the news letter that I looked up. Looks like the front and the inside are a no go

if you have to live there for any stretch of time and think its worth the effort, make as many friends as you can in the neighborhood (the easy part) and volunteer for the hoa (the drag). small people use institutions to be ugly to people they don't know. people tend to piss less on others within the same tent.

I have lived here for about 3 years now and this is the first I have heard of this. Must be some new year changes. Looks like my wife and I will be here for at least another 2 years. I feel like I have gotten along with everyone and introduced myself to others. I mean I’m not the most social guy in the world but Its not like I’m unapproachable. Deep down inside I want to raise hell but I know eventually they will slack off and not check as much so why bother getting upset. I’m just going to buy some static cling and take my chances by placing on the outside. Basically slap it on every time I get home. I’ll hope for the best in regards to weather. Either way the stuff is cheap and possibly the only solution.

Clear Static cling material, maybe?

I hope you are not underestimating your HOA.
It's been my experience that once you attract their attention they can be doggedly relentless.
I HATE HOAs! When looking for our current home we specifically avoided HOA neighborhoods and any with covenants. Neither were negotiable, if either applied we walked, period.
If I were to offer any advice it would be to bite the bullet and place the sticker per their dictatorial guidelines. All it takes is one disgruntled or jealous neighbor to complain and the foo will hit the fan...

Used this all through high school and college to swap my parking pass between vehicles. Never had an issue.

Window Clings

That’s what I’m thinking however I’m going to place it on the outside of the window that way it “looks” like it’s on there. I know it’s recommended to have on the inside of the windshield but it is what it is for my situation. If they bust me again because of it then I’m just going to have to stick the darn thing on..

Good luck. I always stuck mine on the inside.
My school passes were stupid expensive and hard to get. It would have likely been stolen on the outside.

Your pass is free, but it sucks to not release its missing and get towed. Had that happen.

It's also easy to forget its there. The static bond is decent but.. high speeds, rain, temp change, or the carwash would end in sadness.


I'd put it on the inside and see what they say. The letter only states cars without decals will be towed.

I live in a similar area / situation.
Its best to just follow the rules and stay off radar. Most HOA are dicks at the best of times.

The idea is to keep the parking decal with me in my glove. Take it off once I go to work and when I get home from work then I slap it on the outside, so it wouldn’t be getting too much abuse just weathered. I know that putting it on the inside won’t fly. I have tints and it would make it pretty hard to see the decal. I’m most likely going to try the static cling and see what happens. The decal is 2’x3, I was thinking of cutting the cling exactly the same shape then sticking decal on cling and slap it on. It should look clean but once that cling looses its grip I’m screwed. Other option is to cut out cling slight larger so it has a 0.5 inch border all around. Then place decal on glass without peeling the adhesive then slapping on the cling centered.

I hear ya and I may just go this route. The static cling is on the way so I’ll splay with that and see how it looks. If not a beautiful sticker goes on the car

Volvo has a clear plastic sprung tab (est 1." W X 2") adhered to the windshield for passes etc. Just pull it back a touch, slip the pass in.

Practically invisible. $4

Interesting. By the looks of the picture I’m not understanding how it works. It looks like the piece is on the inside.

Honestly bro,....you're making it wayyyyyy harder than it is. You can put it on the inside of the window like you need to do and you can take it off whenever you want or move it around.
If you can get the exact image that you need to be printed on a piece of cling, you're golden. I should know. I printed on cling at work today. lol
Unless, you need to put it on the outside of the windshield??
