You find a dowload here : http://arnulf.us/PLZ However, the data is from 1999 and I'm not sure if it still is up-to-date.

Thanks, I used this data and it looks fine so far. – desputin May 10 '12 at 12:23

Arnulf did a nice job back then and as far as I can tell it's the only freely available dataset. But there are many changes , although minor, changes to the postal area geometries every year. But on a small scale you should be fine. – Crischan May 19 '12 at 17:02
