rtbiscuit Posted February 12, 2010 Share Posted February 12, 2010 I don't want to start a GB yet, as i'm not sure there will be that much interest, and also we're not sure yet if it will definetly fit either straight on, or if i will need to fabricate up a mounting harness using original fixing points. i'll try and get under the car and see what i can work out. ( ,this was the hold up from me ordering ages ago, just haven't had time to jack up and have a look. ) Swift motorsport retractable numberplate holder interest in a GB manual is about $65, motorised is about $125 (this is standard prices, if there is enough interest i'll see what i can negotiate.) don't want to talk figures until i have some numbers to negotiate with. 1. rtbiscuit - manual 2. fakeindian - 3.

srobrien Posted February 12, 2010 Share Posted February 12, 2010 Im just thinking it probably wouldn't fit all that well from underneath if you had a lip. R Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
rtbiscuit Posted February 12, 2010 Author Share Posted February 12, 2010 Im just thinking it probably wouldn't fit all that well from underneath if you had a lip. R the nismo sticks out slightly at the front, same as about an add on lip i would think, it leans back slightly once over, i'm going to have to get under the zed to measure up before i waste anyones time with ringing and setting prices up etc. i think its doable. but i need to check Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Chris`I Posted February 12, 2010 Share Posted February 12, 2010 I actually spoke to this guy a couple of weeks ago and he quoted me $25 shipping to the UK for a single piece. Don't know if that helps but thought it was worth a mention. Is that for a non motorised one? Dont know how big the motor is, but if thats delivery for a motorised one, thats pretty cheap delivery from the US! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Andy Posted February 12, 2010 Share Posted February 12, 2010 That was for a motorised one using USPS which I thought was good as well......his email back to me is below..... Andy, We can ship to the UK, no problem. It will go USPS International, and will probably take 7-10 days to arrive. You can either call us at the shop and place your order over the telephone, or paypal this e-mail address : info@swiftmotorsports.com Shipping to the UK is an additional $25usd, so your total will be $175usd, Dan Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

rtbiscuit Posted February 13, 2010 Author Share Posted February 13, 2010 nope thats a new one on me, but i actually think it will be harder to fit, especially if you have a nismo with the centre bar. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Tarmac@TarmacSportz Posted February 13, 2010 Share Posted February 13, 2010 I take it's legal then ? Do you have to have a seperate key fob for it ? Looks really Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Tarmac@TarmacSportz Posted February 13, 2010 Share Posted February 13, 2010 Is it export plate only or uk too ? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
rtbiscuit Posted February 13, 2010 Author Share Posted February 13, 2010 I take it's legal then ? Do you have to have a seperate key fob for it ? Looks really As far as I can see it should be legal, as long as your plate is on display and on the bumper then it should be legal. I think it comes with it's on keyfob, but I'm going to look at putting a switch in the car and wiring it into the ignition system. So turn on engine; numberplate pops out. Turn off, numberplate retracts. As for size of plate I'm not sure, but I think I will get my plate made up jdm shape so it tales up less space. Should be easy enough to make it take a uk plate.

What happens when you park on street Rich with your plate retracted surely that's not legal ? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
