I've redrawn the Konami Windy inserts as vector files. They're pretty accurate, and I've already test fit them inside an OEM marquee. I cut mine out with a laser, but shouldn't be too hard to do by hand. The colors aren't going to print the same as the originals, but otherwise should get you pretty close if you have a damaged one you're trying to replace. If anyone finds any issues though please let me know.

Thanks @Aurich very generous of you.
Happy to share. I made them for a personal project and then never quite finished them since I didn't need the FREE LAYOUT SPACE text. But once I realized there was a use wasn't hard to just wrap up the last details. I dialed in the text a bit more, it's basically dead on now.

It's good to have this stuff documented, if someone doesn't do it eventually it will all be lost.
 
Something I've been experimenting with in all my cabs is making custom 'full bleed' marquee art. It's not authentic, but I don't love the floating square look. So when I first made these it was actually for this project:

Oh nice, that's great to see. Glad I was able to help a fellow Windy owner. That's a sweet W2!

I had one printed today but it’s too big. I asked the print shop just to print the native size of the file provided by @Aurich but it was oversized. Maybe the kid in the shop stuffed up? Do you have any advice re printing size. Thanks.

asked to print it in native size....Probably your print shop made a mistake.
 
I modified the original file pretty heavily to try n get it as close to original as possible.
Tell the print place to colour match the Blue: 2935 and Yellow: 395 C to those pantone colours.
Also the make sure they know the pink line is a contour cut line and not to print it and to use gloss laminate.

I have 2 spare blue prints here I can sell but postage from Australia isn't cheap.

I ended up using Pantone 300C
