martyn wright Posted October 21, 2019 Report Share Posted October 21, 2019 Hi All! Anyone know the best place to get a No Plate cowling rubber gasket? One on ebay £35 or are they the same elsewhere? Rimmer nor Canley do them? Part 705211! Cheers Martyn Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Colin Lindsay Posted October 21, 2019 Report Share Posted October 21, 2019 Bill Davies (the seller on eBay) may be the only source these days. I think he made them simply because they were unavailable elsewhere. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Gary Flinn Posted October 21, 2019 Report Share Posted October 21, 2019 If you join the Vitesse International Facebook page a guy called David Whythe is having some manufactured at the moment. He quotes a price of £15 Incl UK Postage? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Martin1945 Posted October 21, 2019 Report Share Posted October 21, 2019 (edited) Why not order some flat neoprene off eBay and cut one out. That's what I did.

He quotes a price of £15 Incl UK Postage? More info on this Sample arrived very happy with the finished article. Vitesse and, I believe, Herald estate rear number plate light cowl gasket as an alternative to the original gasket, part number 705211, These are made from 2mm epdm and are self adhesive on one side to enable seating on to the cowl before fitting to the vehicle. I am also hoping to offer a replacement set of nuts, bolts and washers in stainless steel to complete the kit, all for a price under £15.00 including UK postage. ...
