If you only need small runs, many signwriters offer custom vinyl decal
services. A friend's mother worked at one about 16 years ago in a
small town in Wales so they should be fairly widespread now :)
Depending on what you need the decals applied to they may also do that
step for you - it all depends on whether it will fit into their equipment.
This means you needn't worry about aligning them or applying them
smoothly which is the really tricky part if you don't have the tools
and experience.
Bryn.
