cant you just buy a normal plate from say halfords?
it does make sense lol lol the plate must read differant as it would appear on a bike rather than a long car type plateThat makes more sense!
He surely would. Not worth the hassle mate.Think you may get attention from the "law" having a bike plate on a car.
I really like the look of those, hoping to do that to mine, but I think the original garage who sold the car drilled 2 holes for each of the normal number plates right at the end of each which will mean if I changed the plates there will be 4 holeshaven't really seen anyone with square plates just found these pics.
Replacing your number plate
When replacing your number plate you should make sure that the correct material has been used to manufacture the plate. It should be made from a reflective material. Front number plates must display black characters on a white background and rear number plate must display black characters on a yellow background.
The Driver and Vehicle Licensing Agency is not aware of any self-adhesive number plates that meet the British Standard requirements.
Characters on a number plate can be 3D, providing they meet all the other requirements, but honeycomb or other background patterns are not allowed.
Also, the characters on a number plate need to be a standard height and width.
Your number plate should show the correct:
- character height - 79 millimetres
- character width - 50 millimetres (except the figure 1 or letter I)
- character stroke - 14 millimetres
- space between characters - 11 millimetres
- space between groups - 33 millimetres
- top, bottom and side margins - minimum 11 millimetres
- space between vertical lines - 19 millimetres
Motorcycles and tricycles
Motorcycles registered from 1 September 2001 must only display a number plate at the rear of the vehicle.
Motorcycles registered before 1 September 2001 can display a number plate at the front, but do not have to. The number plate must be a 'two-line' number plate.
Motorcycle number plates should have a:
- character height - 64 millimetres
- character width - 44 millimetres (except the figure 1 or letter I)
- character stroke - 10 millimetres
- space between characters - 10 millimetres
- space between groups - 30 millimetres
