Front Number Plate Placement

[Steve]

I checked up with welshpool years ago on this, they said left or right is ok, as long as it is visible from in front of the vehicle up to angle of only around 20 degrees to the front minimum standing at a specific distance.

Boiled down to - make sure its facing frontwards and either side is ok

If you want exact details, best ring welshpool and get it from them

well mines on the drivers side under the lights on a stock series 1 frontbar the fuzz have mentioned it needing to be on the other side at rbts and when i got my yellow sticker but it passed inspection fine so meh

generally you may get more police attention with the plate side mounted but i dont think its illegal

Hi levinet and others here.

I came to your forum from a Google search on rego plates. I have just recently set up a small manufacturing business in Tasmania whose sole purpose is to make licence plate brackets to match specific vehicles. I market the brackets under the name "Lakin Custom Plate Brackets".

Generally we design brackets to fit with the manufacturer's mounting points, but I understand this may not be possible in your case. We also have a design-your-own service. You can download a form which explains what information you need to supply us, to have us manufacture a bracket that suits you perfectly.

We can offer special discounts for car club members too. If this interests you, or anyone in your club, you might like to check our web site - www.lakinplates.com - for more specific details, rather than have me bore you with too much information here.

I hope my blatent commercialism is not offensive to you. While I don't have any special interest in Skylines, I AM a car enthusiast - from WA originally :-) - and understand how enthusiasts like to get all the small details right.

Hey Philip, is there a big market for that sort of thing? I wouldnt have thought there was? Good luck with the business though, sounds very unique.

Hi NA Goodness. I'm about to find out - lol! The market for personal plates is huge and we figure if people know, that for a fraction of the cost of the plates themselves, they can mount them neatly and securely, then they may well be interested in our product.

Thanks for your reply and your best wishes.
