Just need to know about the pitch slider decals. Are they a replacement part or are they a vinyl transfer. Mine has a few marks and scratches so wanting to change it. The pitch slider is fine and fully working.

I'm Chris.
This looks to be the factory part you need, hopefully you can find it cheaper than this though:

So it is just a transfer as standard. Say a few on eBay a little cheaper so will have a look. Cheers for that Chris

You're welcome Mick. Be aware that the cheaper ones may not be the original Technics factory part and quality may vary.
Looks like KAB still have the originals for $9.95 which should duck customs charges but I don't know how much the shipping will cost:

Thanks Chris. I think I will go for the original ones. I know prices are highly but at least you know what you are hopefully getting

Take care when removing the old one as it can be a bit of a pig to get off without damaging the existing paint work around the edges. I suggest you find a thin blade pointed knife and lift one corner to start with. Put a credit card or something similar between the blade and deck when first levering/lifting it - it worked for me. Once one corner is up then used some long nose pliers to peel it off. Its a bit like opening a sardine can and the glue on mine didn't want to let go !.
And in all seriousness, careful with that blade.
