   Tried halfords?
   
   No borders, plain text and the writing down the bottom isnt visible unless close
   
   Take your V5 and driving license in and they're done in 2 mins
   
   Cost £15 each

   eBay.
   
   I paid about £12 for a pair. No V5C or anything. Plain and simple with the BSN in the bottom corner.

   some ebay ones arent road legal so be careful... i got mine with a GB badge from halfrauds, £20 per plate... isn't too bad but i kinda regret getting the gb badge on the rear, it annoys me now... im fussy like that

   And if the car is registerd prior to 2002 you dont need the makers mark on them.
   
   When you find them without online post a link up.
