Jonro2009 Posted February 4, 2017 Share Posted February 4, 2017 They come with adhesive ?? I will buy these then they look so good The listing says they come with sticky pads. If they are no good then you can buy a roll of number plate tape for a few quid in motorsave or Halfords Sent from my iPad using Tapatalk Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

biff55 Posted February 4, 2017 Share Posted February 4, 2017 screw fixings stick out a mile , look ugly and spoil the clean lines. not to mention drilling holes eventually lets water get inbetween the backing plate and vinyl lettering sheet why spend 30 notes on a plate just to put cheap yellow plastic caps on top ? 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

To have it secured ? Or will the tape hold it in place good ?? Never used it before that why I was worried Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Never used it before that why I was worried tape or pads will be fine , my rear plate has been stuck on for 18 months now & it looks much better without fixings :-) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Stoney871 Posted February 4, 2017 Share Posted February 4, 2017 Use a plate holder attached to the original screw holes. Insert the plate and then you have no visible holes. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Tom-B64 Posted February 5, 2017 Share Posted February 5, 2017 I'm using industrial strength Velcro, I struggle to take the plate off myself so I have no worries of it falling off hahaSent from my iPhone using Tapatalk 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
