I was after one but they will now only send a smaller sticker rather than the riveted plate.

Would i have to go direct to Harris to get the sticker and i assume it would be heat proof ?

I think I contacted Norman Hyde as Harris don't actually make them anymore.

Hyde bought the "rights" to the Harris name about TWENTY YEARS AGO!!

Since then the product has been total shite!!

A FANTASTIC product ruined through ZERO quality control.

Thats a bit harsh lad (errr, old man 50yrs) - but they have been rather poor quality in recent years, especially the chrome :??

Piggy,

I haven't spoken to anyone who is impressed with this product since Harris sold out.

I have one on my A4 I bought new many years ago.

It is quite simply pure shite build quality!! :turd
