Title: Number Plate Sizes??
Post by: aeseaton on March 13, 2007, 07:07:01 PM
I broke my front number plate and had the rear one stolen by some thieving gypsy when it was parked in the car park overnight. So i have no idea wot size plate i need on the rear. I have a self adhesive one on the front so no probs there, but the rear is puzzling me.

Anyone have an answer to this??

Its a 1996 Fd.

Cheers

I got one from a guy who was offering them on a Honda Integra forum.  They are just the right size for you to remove the rusty hangers and stick it straight to the plastic on the bumper using those double sided sticky pads leaving no overlaps or holes.  The lettering is 60mm (almost legal - I\'ve not had any problems) and there is a BS mark on them too.

I\'ll post a pic up asap but for now here is the reply I got to my email I sent him. By all means tell him I told you about him, hopefully he\'s still able to make them.  I sent him a cheque and he sent out the plate quite quickly.

Any chance you can measure the size of your plate?

The rear plate is a standars square plate, the same as used on the rear of 4x4\'s, any motor factors should have them on shelf!!

My plate is 30 x 15cm, plenty of yellow either side but it covers the hole in the standard rear bumper nicely.

Best place ive found as they can do self adhesive plates aswell. Seem to have a good selection. Size you need for the back is the US import plate, 305mm x 152mm.
