can anyone advise where I can get hold of a single letter L for my vauxhall - dealer only sells whole word at £15.22 which I do not need.

thanks in advance

    Look for seller "opelise" on eBay - they sell badges at vastly reduced prices. Bought "Active" door badges for mine for £8 each instead of the £20 each RRP.

    You will need the whole badge though.

  • Scrapyard maybe. I'll be honest I'd probably just ignore it if it's gonna cost fifteen quid.

    Pull the rest of the letters off to hide the poor marque of car you own :D

    If you are going to do this - make sure you heat them up with either very hot water or a hairdyer.

    Then remove the glue residue with tar remover/similar.

    Funny you should ask - I need a 'C' for the back of my Jeep CRD but can't find one anywhere. Halfords sell small chrome plated caps so I bought a 'C' from them, but took it back as it wasn't big enough, although the font was similar.
