Is that actually a thing? Smells a bit fishy to me.
Yes Ewan, your right!!..............It was the name given to the slightly translucent adhesive paper used to lift the vinyl off it's backing paper to then apply to what ever you were putting the vinyl on (a van panel etc.). It was given the name because the early ones smelt of fish!!! This was back in the 80's, I'm sure it's different now.

Very popular with the ladies I'd have thought. And...er.... with non binary gentlemen.
Given how highly these 'demographics' regard and care for their footwear.

I’m not sure what the term non-binary means. When I wake up in the morning I find I am always binary. Either a 1 or a 0.

I quite like just the Maserati script, which seems to be the option that isn't on eBay / AliExpress.
Can anyone confirm if they fit a 4200? I don't recall the puddle lights being all that bright on the car, so LED tat would at least make them more useful...

On a side note, I couldn't believe how many pointless tat lights there are on my Mini. When you hit the button on the key, the indicators flash, and if it's dark, DRLs, headlights, and tail lights come on, then there is an LED in each of the 4 handles, then each door has a (no logo) puddle light... I also noticed, the headlights light up in their 'up' position, probably dazzling anyone driving towards you. When you start the car, they automatically adjust to the right level.

Reminds me a bit of this.............This Architect either had a great sense of humor or was not aware of the nature of silhouettes!! I think people who think it's cool to have these puddle lights on their cars suit this version better!!

Im getting them to fit on my MC S'tat'ale

I think these are the ones I've got. And they don't fit a GranTurismo, as they are not quite long enough to fill the whole left by removing the factory light. But I'm sure we can come up with an appropriate bodge.

Just to breath a bit more life into the Tat debate.

Do I go clear or smoked with my side repeaters?
