VIN plate letter/number size...
I now have my VIN number and am just about to make the plate and stamp the chassis but, is there a letter/number size required before i start bashing
away? Nothing stated on the letter or the SVA manual that i can see. Just checkin'.
Cheers,
Steve.

If only i lived near a screwfix. I do begrudge paying that for delivery. Im sooo tight!
I have borrowed my mates set but he has 5mm letters and 3mm numbers. Doesnt look right on trial run.
I have searched but there is never an absolute answer. I think ill ring the SVA centre in Norwich tomorrow and find out. I will post the answer i get
on here.
Dont suppose anyone lives near that has a set

Not less than 4mm
Section 22.2 of the SVA manual (it's in the pdf draft)

Never argue with an idiot. They drag you down to their level, then beat you with experience.
