Hi all, can someone tell me where the best place is to get the square number plates? I'm thinking of doing the front and rear on my Jdm type 20. Also what is the best size to get them in?

Thanks Greg

 

Ebay, saves having to take forms of ID into a shop.

 

But make sure they have the bs number and manufacture/postcode or a fussy copper may fine you

 

Good point

 

To be fair they would have to be a fussy copper, some of the traffic offices are trained by VOSA i believe, but even they would have to be having a bad day to pull you up on that.

 

Craigsplates US import size

 

Thats weird, someones post has gone missing.

 

I've been stopped by a policeman 2days ago as a routine check, although he was a right kunt and checked all tyres etc but didn't mention nothing on the plate gave the scoob a little Snydy compliment and off he went I really did think he was gna fine me after what gaz said, but guess not and no I wasn't lucky as he had me on the roadside for ages doing his checks

 

Measured then made up at local bike shop

 

I think it's also an MOT fail if memory serves lol, mine are both legal...though different size to UK ones

 

I use this site:

http://www.showplatesdirect.com/

They have show plates or Road legal options!

Nope not an mot failure and the copper was right with both of them aswell gaz, mine passed mot no probs front and back

 

Mot time January no advisories :-)

 

They don't usualy say nothing about even small plates but technically your only allowed square plates on cars were there's no other option eg on the back of starlet , mr2 etc

 

Got mine from Halfords, of all places.

Motorbike sized plate.

 

I think you'll find I'm right

Just letting you know so if any of you do get a pull you have no excuse to feel picked on by the nasty man

 

Aaaah I get you the small writing indicates its legal my front has it but not the back I guess it's time to go back and get one made for the rear again with the little writing on should have listened to you wen I put the rear on but didn't understand why that small writing is important I had it cut off to shorten the bottom off
I wish you had put this up before GAZ "pink ninja" lesson learnt I'm off to get my back one re done

 

Chances may be slim of getting caught but for what it is I dont see the point, Ive had a few private plates with and without legal spacing and fonts over the years...always managed to slip the net but I play it safe these days as the cars aren't exactly subtle are they

 

Cheers lads for all the info I think I will go for the square plate. But wont be going for this small plate look.

 

Larger on the rear



Smaller on the front

 

Lovely bug makes me want another every time I see one

 

This bug is one of the best I've seen it makes me want one as well.

12x6 front
13x6.5 rear

Craigs plates
