Yeah, thats the plus side of them, i think i'd have one!

COS 51E needed, or COS 5Y, they'd be cheap i'd imagine.

Agreed. Just as shit as putting screws in the wrong place. Its not a personalised palte if you have to personalise it to make it read something.

NOwt wrong with a bit of KOS

(My old car- now Twellsies- well has been for about 4 or 5 years)

I think its actually been on the car since 94 or 95 so it stayed on for history sake.
