    My car recently just passed the NCT so I need a 3 disc holder instead of 2.

    Anyone know where I can get one of these holders?
    I also renewed my insurance but the insurance company didnt send me a new holder.

    All help appreciated.

    Go to any windscreen replacement company and they will give you one FOC. They use these to advertise their business. You can also buy them unmarked in factors and auto accessory shops.

    ring your insurance company - I'm sure they'd send you a free one.

    Do what my wife did the other day ... she wandered into the local Hibernian office and asked for one ... they gave her a 3 disc holder :D
    I imagine you could do the same with any insurance crowd.

    I doubt if Halfords do them, given that only the tax disc needs to be shown in the UK.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 54 ✭✭electrolinks


    Halfords sell them: http://www.halfords.ie/webapp/wcs/stores/servlet/categorydisplay_storeId_11101_catalogId_15551_categoryId_212625_langId_-1

    €4.99 for a bit of plastic!

    I think Ill try my local motor-factors.

    Why not make these discs self sticking to the windscreen like in other countries?

    Would be nice idea if we just had the tax disc to show like the UK but with having to show NCT Insurance and Tax is would end up being all over the shop trying to line up all 3.

    Don't take this the wrong way I love the first line of this post. You sound so proud of the NCT pass. "Yo bitches, I need a 3 disc holder! It passed the N C T!!!!!!!!!!"
    :D

    Anyway, enough silliness, petrol stations should have them. My place sold them for 2 euro. A choice of black or white!

    EDIT:
    Just realised you may not need an NCT disc for a new car for a couple of years.
    Oh well :P

    Use sellotape to attach them, like in the good old days.
