Hi guys, is this ok for a VIN plate for IVA purposes, and do I have to put it anywhere in particular?



Regards
Andy

You have to have it spaced so no extra characters can be added.

You dont need the sylva name on the chassis VIN, only on the Vin Plate.

If you just cut around it so you leave out the 'VIN' title, and the 'Sylva' part - and as long as you have 17digits, they are at least 3.5mm, you have no I O or Qs - that one should be fine.

I already have the VIN etched on the chassis.
The photo is of my intended VIN plate.

I printed one and stuck it on an ally plate, passed IVA and DVLA inspection, they both looked at it and made no comment. Just made a note.

Hi,

Do Chassis / Vin numbers have to start with SA??

I want mine to start with MR??

Cheers

I thought the plate was supposed to display axle weights?

Thats optional. All you need is make and vin.

What loggyboy says, some have failed IVA for having to much info on the VIN Plate. NO! seriously
