Default Which cars do these fit TX DPS

I bought these NOS TX DPS stickers out of Austin a year ago from a DPS source. 1980s - 1990s .Not sure what they fit, it will be intresting to find out. They dont read highway patrol on the top or bottom like the Mustangs have unless it was a seporate sticker. Thanks in advance for your input.

"Highway Patrol" is a separate decal.

That one looks like it's missing the round, black background (just a guess).

Those appear to be current issue. As he said above, no black circle background like the era of the Mustangs.

This is one of those decals like you have. I believe this door panel came from a 2003. Someone probably knows better than I do, but I think this decal has been around since the mid 90's. When I started in 1999, there were still some older units using the full black circle decal, but not many. Driver License and Motor Vehicle Inspection come to mind. It was pretty common to see the full black circle decals used on "brass" cans at the DPS firearms ranges and glass doors of offices.
