Nameplates are just one element of product design. These parts are typically issued as components for the brand owner or equipment manufacturer. They are line items within a build of materials that become part of the assembly process for the end product.
A common concern for product designers is how to differentiate between different models of the same product. A great solution for this is to design the product so that same size label dimensions are called out. This is cost effective and provides for standardization in molds or mating housings.
These seat belt nameplates showcase this very well. Each metal nameplate for the seat belt lock is the exact same size, but the artwork is customized based on the make and model of the vehicle. The parts are supplied with pressure sensitive adhesive on the backside which provides a strong bond to the mating surface. A durable topcoat ensures that the decoration stands up to frequent handling and fingerprints.
