re this For Sale post - viewtopic.php?f=8&t=88895

Hi Nathan,

What a great product, especially for those doing a sympathetic restoration of a Classic Mini.

To satisfy those wanting as close to original items on their car as possible, have you considered applying the original makers mark that was etched top centre? In my case for a 1970 Cooper S it was Triplex.

What you are asking for has certain legal implications, and Mr Pilkington would almost certainly take a very dim view of one of his brand names being applied to a product that he is not making himself.

No harm in getting it done yourself before fitting it.

Acid etching glass isn't rocket science, give it a go!
