If you want to create a custom label for your panel meter, you can do it in a variety of ways. You can just tape a label over the top of the existing one and hand draw your own label, or you can print out your own using the template below.
I used Avery brand removable labels that fit perfectly to the panel meter. These labels are also not permanent, so are easy to remove if you want to change the meter design in the future.
Here are the files to print your own label. There is a PDF version that you should be able to use to print directly onto the label. There is also an included EPS file you can use if you want to make changes to the label for a different project.
Disassemble the Panel Meter
Start by removing the two screws on the back holding the clear cover to the panel meter. Then inside you will see two tiny screws holding the graphic panel in place. Remove these screws and carefully slide the panel out.
Once you have printed the label, I found it easiest to align the two circles to the screw holes on the existing panel. If you try to adhere the label to the front of the panel, you will see the text show through the label.
Once you have the sticker/label adhered to the back of the panel, you can use a hobby knife to cut around the panel from behind like this:
Now go ahead and assemble everything back together how it was before with your new label facing out.
