Does anyone know the height of the lettering used for the chassis number in the trunk? Or, could measure it, please? I'm trying to replicate the Karmann number on my LE but this trunk was replaced by the PO. I have a 4mm, 6mm, and 10mm punch set. So, it'll probably be 8mm (IMG:style_emoticons/default/blink.gif)

Thanks.

They are 10mm in my original 1973 teener. (IMG:style_emoticons/default/aktion035.gif) I haven't seen them in years and didn't realize they were that big!

Sweet Jesus! What luck! Thanks, Jamie!

Clay, Interested if you can confirm this, as well. (IMG:style_emoticons/default/beerchug.gif)

A pic could probably help as well. Hard to see in the above photo that I pulled from an very old thread. Thanks!
