bit confused with instructions -letter says to be put on passenger side, but leaflet is a picture of drivers door....or am i missing someting  :huh:

It's supposed to go on passenger door. They prolly just messed up the pic.

If I get one, I think I might embed it in the ceiling of the car, so you have to look up to see it.

Easily accessible, passengers can see it but no criminal's gonna know.

Someone posted a thread about plaques somewhere and it showed what they looked like and where it was supposed to go.

Without reading through all the million posts from before. Who can I contact @ VW to get mine guys? The car is leased remember, so don't know what difference that will make..
Title: Re: Got my edition 30 Plaque today
Post by: Golfgirl on 22 November 2008, 18:47
Ring the number that Phil has posted (the one that scrolls across the screen) with your chassis number. 

I've not had a letter or phoned yet, but will do on Monday if it doesn't come then now that people are starting to receive them.
Title: Re: Got my edition 30 Plaque today
Post by: Greenouse on 22 November 2008, 20:23
Just to confirm, the plaque is supposed to go on the drivers side  :wink:  :nerd:
Title: Re: Got my edition 30 Plaque today
Post by: Golfgirl on 24 November 2008, 13:39
I've just phoned customer services....not received a letter but thought I'd phone anyway.  Was just asked to confirm my name, reg. and address NOT chassis number although I did ask him to confirm the chassis number with me. 

I've been given a case number and will receive the plaque in 1-2 months as they are being sent out in batches.

If anyone wants a spare plaque stevep is in contact with the makers and they will make you a back up copy if you wish to have one (of course you need to be the owner of the car the plaque belongs too), see this thread

Post by: stokeballoon on 24 November 2008, 19:50

Phoned VW CS this morning, they had the car registered with a wrong reg number so have also had to get the supplying dealer to change it too :rolleyes:

 
Helpful young lady, called Sarah (bit of a petrol head by all accounts) stated the letters will get sent out in batches.
