Title: Number plate holder
Post by: blingsta on November 09, 2021, 05:46:03 pm

Hi guys,

Can anyone post a pic of what I need to screw the number plate holder to the car please.
Or is there nothing specific used ? A self taper screw?

Hi mate I literally used self tapping screws or you could just stick with number plate strips. (https://uploads.tapatalk-cdn.com/20211109/886bd27705f5078e92d94020f8ccb2b3.jpg)

Mine was also secured with self tappers. I took them off and secured the holder with 3m self adhesive stickers.

Sorry chaps.. I was talking about the front holder, but I'd assume just some self tapers with washers would do the job

Ah sorry pal I have a smooth front grill with a short plate I would go down the 3m route personally so not to leave holes everywhere on the front

The OEM holder? - thats got push pins that expand in the holes.
Or you could stick the plate to the bumper without holder...needs a lot of sticky pads and bending - but looks better than with holder.
