Mr Budgie sir,

May I ask how you have done that? Have you used a bracket?

I was going to place mine on the inside of my screnn on the n/s/f.

Mr Budgen,

I'm cool mate. Cannot wait until Sunday.

I may give the bracket a miss matey as my bumper isn't in the best of states following contact with a sucidial badger or cat the other week.

I think I will stick to the true GIMPING trick of putting it inside the window.

Nothing fancy here, didn't want it stuck on the paintwork as I would like to keep it after the event.

Square piece of perspex cut to size by local glazier for £1 (bends are tricky and it might shatter), one small red cable tie through the plastic loop in the towing eye hole and two tiny holes in the sticker / perspex, along with a large cable tie running around the black plastic bit that sits behind the number plate/along the bumper and another red cable tie attached to that, again through the sheet/sticker. Sounds tricky, but reasonably straightforward.

Seems pretty stable and passes the wiggle and pull test, so hopefully it'll be fine tmw...!!

Wanted to do something different with the sticker and not just plonk it on the windscreen or the bonnet.

Had a bit of plywood in the garage:






Marked out:





Cut out with the jigsaw:



Showing the sticker and backing plate:



Just to show how it would sit:




Drilled out the holes:



The top hole I did as I was thinking of screwing it where the license plate goes.


Sticker then spray mounted and drilled:




Two very quick pics as I was in a hurry:
