Avoid them like the plague.

Overpriced, cheap reproductions made from paper which fade within weeks and are nigh on impossible to remove.

These ones:

Them's the ones. Clearly a cheapo reproduction. They look good for a week, then they start to fade.

I'm going to see if I can make a better one so I'll report back if I succeed.

I bought one aswell they were going for 20 quid plus! I missed out on 5 or 6. Before I won one. I paid 7 quid , but was still annoyed at the quality. Not seen any fading as yet though.

I emailed the lass to say that they were prone to fading and she sent me a couple more. But reluctant to put one in as the same's going to happen again.

I'm intending to do this:

Simple, yet effective. And it won't fade.

They were made by titcharoony back in 2008. £10.

Been forsale on ebay for years claiming to be the original screen printed vinyl holders....they are not.

I've also contacted some companies about making some decent ones.

What does everyone think of these (other than the RAC logo needing to be a darker blue?)

As soon as I get 100% confirmation that they are screen printed and not paper like the others I'll be getting some sorted and as soon as they're delivered I'll start a new thread. Looking at about £10 delivered each, and £5 for any additional one.

Ok chaps and chapettes, had confirmation that these are going to be screen printed so just waiting until the end of the Easter break and then they should be getting made up. I'll put up a new thread when I get them :)

If anyone can think of anywhere else that these could be sold, feel free to post a link to my other thread. Discount if not bought through eBay.
