I'm also looking into doing this but can't find a supplier of a relocation kit in the UK. Perrin want a ridiculous amount of money for their kit.

I did think about making my own but don't have the time atm. Everywhere I was looking they wanted over £100 for the perrin one. I'll take a look at scooby clinic £76 isn't too bad, thanks.

I made my own delete plate , cut a bit of metal to size , sprayed with red crinkle paint and let dry , then put one of the many free Perrin stickers on top and then sprayed black over it and then removed the sticker so just the red Perrin is crinkle
