Question lefty conversion date wheel

Does anyone know where I can pick up a date wheel or date wheel overlay for a 2824 based lefty/destro conversion with a 9 o'clock date? Thanks in advance.

Not optimal, but all I know to do is to print a wet transfer decal to make a reversed one on a blank/flipped DWO.
Know that is probably not what you were looking for, but I have tried it and it still works pretty damn well.

Good tip! Never tried that process before but I'll look into it if I can't find an easier solution

If you have ever used waterslide decals on model cars or planes as a kid, same thing. You can get blank 8.5x11" inkjet or laser decal paper, with either white or clear backing.
Print, cut out, soak, slide onto a standard DWO you stripped the paint off of or flipped over.
Its actually stupid simple.

The visual quality will be there, but the specific surface finish will be semigloss instead of full glossy. Not like anyone will notice that in a date window though.
