I tried three or four Halford stores when I was trying to get a plate made. They all catered for cars, but not one could make a square one up for me.

Ah! They were the only place I hadn't thought about, I'll ask em tomorrow.

And passenger + speed + not smooth road I think...

Lesson learnt.

Does the company need a special machine to make them or...? How are they made?

They only place them on a blank plate then pass them through a roller. Takes minutes.

How much could a main dealer possibly charge? Worth a phone call to your nearest first thing tomorrow if you're in a hurry.
