Is anyone else struggling to get hold of a 2 line Rectangular Rear number plate as used on D3/4s?
I need a new one for my trailer which is set up to take that size plate.
All my local Motor factors who make plates up are out of stock of that size/shape, and can't tell me when they will have more in.
I tried my local Halfords store who said they no longer supply that style from stores, you have to order them from Halfords online.
When I tried online their website only gives the option of the single line long one.
I need the plate tomorrow morning, so am a bit stuck now. Heaven doesn't want me, and hell is afraid I'll take over.

I usually get mine from the local Ifor Williams agent. A lot of their trailers, and also plant such as dumpers etc, use them so it might be worth widening the search a little!. Currently 2009 Disco 3 SE, 2013 MY D4 HSE and 2016 D4 SE
Previously:
TD5 Defender 110 CSW (230k miles)
300TDi Disco 1 (289k)
4 RR Classics (300-350k each, 2 manual, 2 auto)
110 V8 CSW (220k)
S3 109 hi cap pickup (ex RN)
S2A 88 Safari SW with lpg conversion (bloody lethal)

Thanks Both
Waterbouy, a great suggestion.
I wasn't aware that my local trailer place makes plates, but having contacted them it looks like they can do it on my way home from work today. Heaven doesn't want me, and hell is afraid I'll take over.
