do you mean here ,just tested it and it would be quite a distraction whilst driving, and the sun would hit it and reflect onto you at times

I'm interested in getting an additional plaque or two

Spoke to the guys who produce the plaques for VW and the price for one, ordered independantly was crazy!! All due to the set up costs involved.

Think I remember seeing a post a while back where a group of you ordered duplicate plaques??

Remember the minimum order being 30??  How much did each additional plaque work out to be in the end??

when the last group buy's are all out it would be good to sort another.
I am sure there are plenty out the who have purchased an ED30 & would like a spare.

More than happy to take the work off the shoulders who ever did it last and sort the next batch out.

I have one on the driver's door (in the 'right' place), one on the back of what would be the ashtray but on mine is just a storage space, and one on the engine cover which I think looks pretty cool.

I know this thread is years old but I've had no luck searching.
I'm looking for a thread that explains how to get you're plaque if you haven't had one before, I'm sure I've seen it before.

Holy thread revival.

You've not searched hard enough.  :laugh:


Here you go......

Contact WV customer services on 0800 0833914. Give them all your details (telling them your after your "individually numbered Golf GT Edition 30 plaque") and if one has not been previously sent out to a former owner one will be sent to you for free. If one has been sent out before then you will not get one.

IIRC you will need to send them (via email) a copy of your Reg Document showing its your car and they go from there.

I delt with a chap called Matthew Young but lots of peeps have delt with a lass named Jenny.

Hope that helps. Any probs, PM me and I'll give you the direct phone number for the chap I spoke to (if I can find it).
