Plastic number plate digits - source?

PostPost by: jono » Sat Mar 04, 2023 1:29 pm

Does anyone know where white plastic raised digits can be purchased 'loose' as it were?

Cheers

Hi Jon,
I got my raised numbers for the front grille from Framptons.
Look up framptons plates .com

Jon,

I used the number plate centre (Birmingham). I came across them at a show several years ago.

Hope this helps,

If by any chance you are going to the restoration show at the NEC at the end of the month there is at least one stand ( I think two or three ) normally there that can satisfy any number plate requirement.

Loads on eBay.
What are you after? I have a mixed bag full.
EBay ones about £10 each

Framptons, got mine from there too. Used my original backing plates, and just bought their letters and fixing washers, £3/4 quid each, a couple of years ago.

Thanks chaps I never considered Framptons - I recently bought a new rear plate from them but they don't show individual letters on their website.

I will give them a call.

Thanks again
