Replica Vin Plates in Aluminium

This is another VIN plate decoder for the mk1 - I have used it in the past.

I couldn't get any info from VW for the serial number (vertical number on plate) - just that it was an internal number.

thanks, i tried this last night, the give you the serial number as the last digits of the vin, i doubt this is the number we need though

actually wondering whether it would be on the labour instruction tkt that is usually under the carpet as i still have this..

got my vin plate this week, looks awsome, thanks alot shughy!
