LouisW Posted January 10, 2014 Author Share Posted January 10, 2014 I have designed a blanking plate that sits in the H tower with holes for gauges and was wondering if anyone else would be interested in this? The gauge hole sizes are 52.4mm. I've attached a picture of it below if anyone's interested. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I'm thinking about doing that just eBay takes so much money for fees its unbelievable! I think I will offer the service of engraved customs ones on the forums and make some standard plain ones for eBay. The price for the radio plates is £15 which is much less than the originals selling on eBay and are custom cut. Pm or post if interested.Kind regardsLouis.

LouisW Posted January 16, 2014 Author Share Posted January 16, 2014 Hi Alex,I'm hoping to join when the spits on the road and the driving test is passed. Then I can reap the full benefits of being a member. I'm just bumping so if people want a plate they can just pm me and have them made to order.

rotoflex Posted February 6, 2014 Share Posted February 6, 2014 Those are nice, Louis. They're better that hacking out a DIN-size hole in an original plate. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

LouisW Posted February 6, 2014 Author Share Posted February 6, 2014 Excellent news Leigh, I just replied to your pm!rotoflex wrote:Those are nice, Louis. They're better that hacking out a DIN-size hole in an original plate.I thought so anyway, especially with the price of the steel ones being so high. I'll try get some mk3 templates made up today.

LouisW Posted February 9, 2014 Author Share Posted February 9, 2014 The black radio plate on the first page is now for sale, it is a plain black plate made from 3mm acrylic and will fit the spitfire mkiv, 1500 and gt6 mk3. The hole size is single din so fits most aftermarket radios. Price is £15 + £3.50 postage. Pm me if interested.Louis. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Pete Lee Posted February 9, 2014 Share Posted February 9, 2014 It's a good easy answer to the old problem. I have my unmolested panel in storage and riveted a aluminium panel with a cut out for the radio to the H panel and then recovered the whole thing.

LouisW Posted February 28, 2014 Author Share Posted February 28, 2014 Making another batch of radio plates up out of acrylic next week, if anyone is interested shoot me a pm! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
LouisW Posted March 12, 2014 Author Share Posted March 12, 2014 I currently have a single din radio plate and two gauge plates (space for 2 smiths gauges/ gauges of 52mm mounting) for the spit 1500, mkiv and gt6 mk3. PM if interested, both in plain black gloss acrylic of 3mm. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
LouisW Posted April 10, 2014 Author Share Posted April 10, 2014 I currently have two gauge plates (2 x 52mm holes perfect for smiths gauges) in plain black gloss acrylic 3mm left which I need gone really. Pm if interested, £10 each which is cheaper than butchering up the original plate and also cheaper than the generic ones on eBay. Fits perfect into your H tower as well.Louis.

LouisW Posted March 12, 2015 Author Share Posted March 12, 2015 I'm thinking of bringing these radio plates back after they did pretty well last time, how many people would be interested if i was to do so?They would just be plain black acrylic.

LouisW Posted June 17, 2015 Share Posted June 17, 2015 Right, I have had 10 more gauge/ radio plates put into production but due to having to outsource the manufacture I have been unable to have the engraving added. They are just plain black 3mm acrylic plates. What I have available are 2 x 3 Gauge Plates, 2 x 2 Gauge Plates and 6 Single Din plates! They are £20 each, due to them costing me more to produce etc this is only slightly more than before.I do not have the plates at the minute, but will have in the near future so if you want to pre-order and then pay when they arrive I can be sure to get them sent out ASAP. Pm me or message on here, I dont know if i'll get round to having more manufactured, depends on the interest with these!

LouisW Posted June 29, 2015 Author Share Posted June 29, 2015 I have received the radio/ gauge plates and have already sold both three gauge plates. I have left 6 single din radio plates, and 2 two gauge plates. The price for these are £20 posted, and I will post abroad if buyer covers postage cost.
