richardirv - are you providing any way of attaching? Or do we use blutak/tape etc?

I thought that would be a personal choice, so no. I havn't even decided what to use myself. But for my test pics I just used some looped sellotape which seemed to work fine tbh. I just thought everyone would have different idea's of how to attach them so didn't see the point in providing a method of attachment.

Hope this is ok with everyone.  

I guess people wanting to use regularly could use thin velcro strips (not sure if that is legal though if left in place?), or just a bit of blutak for occasional use?

I'm just planning to use blu-tac TBH...

TB, you in stealth mode again??

[The Red Baron]

Think he is. blue tak ok if its not raining.

I had thought about this but It requires strips to be left on the plate and I suspect that PC Plod wouldn't be to happy. Bet you'd get pulled all the time.

cunningly placed over the lettering  , or unless you can get yellow velcro (I know you can get white), if its same colour, and just thin strips either end....    ....then again, they may think you use fake plates

Was exactly my thought, If you could find some strong velcro the right colour that can be put on very small in all 4 corners or on the lettering as you say but there is still a risk.

I will have a think about it, see if I can think of any (legal) alternatives

If they are the same size as standard number plates why not superglue a 'U' channel on each end (IE the strip off a broken fridge glass shelf)?

I think i kinda know what you mean, so it kind of hooks over the original plate?

Yep, exactly that

[The Red Baron]

Sounds a good idea to me.  

[richardirv]

Tis a good idea but I still rekon people will wanna do it different ways so I'll just send them out then everyone can mount them how they please.

Keep the idea's coming in though!! hehe

Right, how much posted to burton then, so i can paypal the cash to you?.

Was thinking of getting some 8/10 mm plastic tubing.  Run a stanley knife (Carefully) down one side to split it. then either put a piece either end of the number plate or a long piece either top or bottom of the plate and use it like a long C clamp method to hold the show plate on.

I havn't got an exact figure for postage yet. Still loads to sort out. I am sorry its taking so long. My guess is about £6-8 pair. I am going to post just one when they are all complete then I will have an exact figure rather than just guessing.
