cerealuk Posted May 4, 2011 Share Posted May 4, 2011 Just wondering how you guys fix your number plates to your car? Are the supplied sticky pads good enough? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
coldel Posted May 4, 2011 Share Posted May 4, 2011 Supplied pads should work fine, or some padded double sided tape does the trick can be bought from halfrauds etc. Just whack four or five vertical lines of it along the back and pop it on.

Peter10 Posted May 4, 2011 Share Posted May 4, 2011 I use screws that have to be cut to get the plate off (not possible to turn the head anti-clockwise), too many plates have been stolen in my area where they are held on by double sided tape.
