those style plates are legal over here (guernsey) so If you wanted to send me a cheque I may be able to get you a pair and send them back to you. Cant imagine it bein more than £30 with postage. I dont know if thats a good price or not but if it is then send me a pm and il sort something out for ya.

thats the best mk3 ive seen..ever! its just clean and subtle.. :cool:

I think your looking for the old style, pre 74, british spec pressed (halfsheer) plates, and not the German/EU ... these are the people www.vintage-plates.co.uk
hope this helps...

from what I can gather these plates are hard to purchase off companies as they are specific to that year.  My golf is 1982, so may have to just go for the silver on black.  Its hard sourcing them.
