licence plate fixing

Post by janieh »

Hi Guys

Our front licence plate fell off while we were on the motorway. A bit of the plastic trim that was holding it in place is also missing, so I don't think we can just put a new one on in the same way. Does anyone know where to get the things that hold them in place (sort of plastic baseplate/ frame)? I had a look on Brickwerks and JustKampers and can't see anything like that.

Cheers
Jane

Two self-tappers. Or some double-sided sticky pads.

also worth knowing on metal bumpers self tappers need to be just the right length as there is little room behind, I had to cut some to length.
