Gauging interest in BS AU 48 plate for UK RHD cars
Hello,
I haven’t had any success in trying to locate one of these for my car so I am thinking of getting a batch made.
I was wondering if any other DDKers would be interested in having one. If I can get sufficient interest, I could get the numbers to work since most of the cost is in tooling.
Kind regards
Gitesh

I would be interested if the price is reasonable and if they would have appeared on a MY69 car. Does anyone know what years the they were applied to?

Not true, in my experience. My '70 car had one. I still have the original but someone mangled it at some stage, so a good repro would be more in keeping with the post-resto shiny slam panel.knapmann wrote:I've read these were only fitted 72-73 not sure of thats true or not?

I was surprised to read that according to Cees in the post #27 in the following thread (link below), the cars built conforming to BS AU 48 had seat-belt mounts on the side of the centre tunnel and inner door sills. Is this true? All of them no matter what year?

I hope my car has those mounts but I can't check at this minute as it's in storage a few miles away from where I live.
Thanks in advance.

Re: Gauging interest in BS AU 48 plate for UK RHD cars
My late 1971 built '72 MY RHD, which has the BS AU 48 plate, was a South African car and has those seatbelt mounts. As the car had been used as a club racer I assumed these were an adaptation rather than a works fitment. Obviously this requires other owners to check out their cars.IanM wrote:I was surprised to read that according to Cees in the post #27 in the following thread (link below), the cars built conforming to BS AU 48 had seat-belt mounts on the side of the centre tunnel and inner door sills.

I'd be up for having one!

Hello,
I couldn’t get enough interest to make this economical so I bought a used one. Sorry.
