Fitting Number Plates

Fitting new Number Plates to your vehicle might seem like a daunting task, but with the right tools and a bit of patience, you can easily accomplish this DIY project. Whether you’re replacing damaged plates, upgrading to personalized ones, or simply freshening up the look of your vehicle, this guide will walk you through the process.

Choose between Adhesive Pads, Screws or Brackets

Adhesive Pads:

Suitable for all types and sizes of Number Plates, this is the easiest way of attaching. Surfaces should be clean and free from any dirt and grease, to ensure that the Adhesive Pads can adhere properly. We recommend using Isopropyl Alcohol (IPA) and a microfibre cloth.

Screws:

This method is fine for Standard Printed Number Plates, however, if using with 3D or 4D Number Plates, you should exercise some caution. Drilling and screwing through 3D or 4D characters will potentially damage them.

Brackets:

This option is rapidly growing in popularity, offering a clean and secure way of attaching Number Plates. Brackets should be attached to your vehicle using Screws.

Conclusion

Fitting new number plates is a straightforward task that can be done in under an hour with basic tools. By following this guide, you can ensure your plates are securely and neatly attached, giving your vehicle a fresh and professional appearance. Whether you opt for Adhesive Pads, Screws, or Brackets, careful preparation and alignment are key to a successful installation. Enjoy the satisfaction of a job well done and the improved look of your vehicle!
