Number plate relocation

Post by c_doughty1 » Mon May 02, 2016 6:37 pm

Good evening folk, ok ages ago a bought a number plate relocator / holder. Ive just taken the old one off but if i drill through the plastic and attach it like this picture, its off central. Do i get the saw and cut through the plastic thats in the way to centralise it?

Also i need the gromity type things that the number plate screws screw into the others were drokked. Any idea where i can get replacements?

And can i drive my car with the number plate in the window until ive fixed it?

Cheers guys in advance. :cry:

Ive done this before and had no trouble, but that's not to say you won't if your local constabulary find themselves at a loose end.

I haven't got a front number plate at all on my truck currently. It fell off the other weekend and I haven't gotten around to replacing it yet :oops: the police haven't taken an interest yet, I even drove through one of the random drink drive road blocks that we have locally and nobody mentioned the lack of a registration plate :lol:
