where can i get egr blanking plates from for both parts so i can remove it from engine altogether ?? some on ebay but dont know which 2 ile need cheers

[johnsvan]

Don't know where to get them from, I just made my one.

I don't see the point of removing it altogether, my engine looks as standard because I just slipped my blanking plate in between. That's the way I like it - no questions from the MOT guys.

If you do buy some then make sure they are strong enough to be used without the EGR pipes and flanges otherwise you will have leaks.
