The copper that will be looking for EGR blanks will be a rare beast indeed. I know. I have experience in this.

The former :) Devon and Cornish. Not traffic but being a keen biker I had a lot of mates on traffic. Most traffic coppers nowadays are far too busy to stop Tranny vans looking for blanking plates. Most won't even be aware/interested or know a EGR from a alternator. I left 13 + years ago and it's only got far worse with all the cuts. Yes I did 20 years in the RN followed by 10 in the 'job'.
