Hi
1st You get the vin no from DVLA.
We had trouble stamping our vin no direct to the chassis
it was just denting the chassis & not legible
I contacted Vosa via email ,their reply was to stamp it on a steel plate
& weld it all the way round onto the chassis drivers side
near the bulkhead.
Passed IVA no probs ,had the email from Vosa in case.

VIN doesnt have to come from DVLA, it can be provided by the manufacturer or just made up, providing it fits the description provided by the IVA manual.

Its been covered 101 times so try search or just read the manual! You wont even need to search, just flick through a few pages of the IVA Section on here.

As already said, VIN does not have to come from DVLA, but from what I gather it saves a lot of hassle later. I got mine from them and it took minutes once they'd looked over the car. At least I knew I should have no issues at registration (which I didn't )

I stamped mine onto a 3mm plate and welded it to the cross-brace in the engine bay. No issues with Mr IVA man and I didn't bend the rail that way





It looks like the Midget is winning at the moment......
