Guys,
So as you can see from the lack of response, these are rare now. The holders are easily fabricated though, take some measurements from another vehicle with some pictures and get a local welder or metal fabricator to knock them up. The plaques on the other hand are a different matter. I remember that we sought to replicate them, but it was very expensive, especially in low numbers.

Over the last year I have noticed the large number of G4 cars that have been denuded of their plaques and brackets...mine included... As such I purchased the front one through the club but am still missing the rear and both brackets. Given the number of people who have enquired about them could we start an expression of interest page...that way we could see how many would be interested and then judge whether the price is relevant or not..
I understand that any plaque is going to be expensive and because my car is what it is, it won't be complete until I find Willy Wonkers golden ticket.....
Therefore I'll be happy to pay a premium but at present don't know how much that would be. With more members signing up the price will then obviously drop..
How much were you originally quoted?
Thoughts?

Tbh the brackets arn't that complex its just an L shaped bracket which the Plaque has 4  Pop Rivet's into the bracket

The brackets would as has been said be easy to replicate, its the plaques as they are pressed, the company that did the 03 - 06 plaques have the metal casts used so these could be bought but have to be a minimum order or 25 units, with a price of around £90 each. We did have 25 rear 03-06 plaques made which have been selling well. The 09 casts got binned and the cost of remaking the casting would be a few thousand pounds and then they would still need to be made so its unlikely there will ever be any more for the 09 cars.

Joan has a bracket so it could be used to be copied and replicate, i would buy one from the person that will take the time do make some.


I have the plaque, still in plastic wrap ;-)
