I recently purchased a battery detailing kit for my '67 Deville from WESKCAR.com. This is a really nice, reasonably kit that allows you to disguise a modern battery as an original style Delco battery. For $23.00 you get a set of 6 3D printed and painted battery caps, authentic looking Delco decals and even a nicely reproduced copy of the original battery warranty card. The business that produces the kit is located in Belgium but you can purchase the kits from their Ebay store: ebay.com/str/weskar . Shipping was only $1.25.  I've attached a picture of the kit installed on my NAPA replacement battery. Note: be sure to check the size of the filler holes in your battery, most are 3/4", you can get spacer rings from Weskcar if necessary.

I can vouch for the quality of this kit.  As described.  Seamless, non PayPal, transaction if you wish is a plus.  Also ordered their "Cadillac" fire extinguisher decal for my interior mounted extinguisher.  Safety first folks, with Cadillac STYLE!

Harley,
  Can you post a picture of what the fire extinguisher decal looks like.  I hadn't heard of that before and was curious about it.  Thanks in advance.

Here is a picture of the General Motors fire extinguisher decal. You can see this and the battery detail kits at: https://weskcar.com/

  Thanks Mike,
I like that. So you can make any fire extinguisher look like it came from GM with that decal. Sharp!

I have not applied the sticker to my H3R extinguisher yet but will post a pic soon.  I am waiting for availability from my internal sticker application expert (wife).  The sticker is very nice so I don't want to muck it up ham handedly with my man hands...

Here is a weblink to the "Cadillac Model" Sticker;

Can someone confirm what color and decal was provided on the 1968 models. They have several selections for GM in that era.
