Multics Posted April 21, 2009 Share Posted April 21, 2009 For the front, I know that craigsplates.com do a legal 7 character plate of 380mm x 85mm. No pics though sorry. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

AndyT Posted April 21, 2009 Share Posted April 21, 2009 if im correct this looks like a 3/4 right? thats how i want it That's it. Do the deal with Craisplates. It's under the legal heading. You'll have to scan your docs to them to confirm everything. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
AlanM Posted April 21, 2009 Share Posted April 21, 2009 Gives you all the sizes, including imports which are smaller on the DVLA website Jazz Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jacko Posted April 21, 2009 Share Posted April 21, 2009 (edited) Ye go for craigsplates, i just got a new front from there after the local constabulary had a moan about the old one i made not having a BS number and all that. Also their plates have everything on there to make them legal and also say "import" in the bottom corner, which always helps if the police get arsey/ dont know the law. I can go and take a pic of mine if you want? Edited April 21, 2009 by jacko (see edit history) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

jacko Posted April 21, 2009 Share Posted April 21, 2009 Yes, it may be a legal size, but it will not be legal. The law requires the plate to display the BS number, postcode and name of manufacturer, which if it is a "show plate" it will not Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
