We send you herewith Standardisation Sheet we are contemplating issuing. As a lightened edition of the spare wheel carrier will be an improvement when sufficient testing has been done. Could you let us know the tool cost involved before we circulate the sheet. We believe the saving per car is in the neighbourhood of 15/-.
