printing a marquee

I have a small marquee 17"X9" that I made for my jukebox and I need to take it to a printer.  What is the best type of material to print to so that light will go through it enough to simulate a marquee on an arcade game?  I was able to print control panel artwork and it came out great, but I would think I need to print to a different more translucent material?   Thanks!

Search for "Backlit Film".

I had mine printed here:

It came out OK, but isn't very high in resolution.

Thanks!

Don't pay that much for low res!

Thanks for the link Ginsu.  I assume this is your company?  I just places an order.  Let me know if you think the artwork is too dark for a marquee and I'll try and lighten it up.  I'll send the file later today.
