Can't help with the lining up but 'float' them on with soapy water. They will then move about if you get it wrong / get bubbles out. Then when water evaporates ther'e stuck!

Got one side on very late this afternoon using your 'float them on' method. Certainly makes moving the letters about very easy but I did worry that the soapy water was going to dissolve the adhesive.
Only problem I had was trying to remove the top paper. Probably should have left it for longer before trying but I didn't want the letters to stick to the extent that I couldn't lift them to remove air bubbles.Clubs Mantec, Tasmods, LEDS, AT2s on 18s, Maxxis Bighorns on 17s, Remote FBH, BAS.

Finally got mine done in Normandy last weekend - the red wine helped give me a steadyish hand - reckon my stainless side tubes will enhance them when they're back on after the next few off road events
