Hi

I am looking to change the standard number plates on my car as they are scruffy and wanted customised plates with Mercedes logo on side - I have changed and bought many on ebay before but cannot seem to find any companies on ebay that do them, I also have tried searching the internet as well - can anyone help.

Thanks

Pretty sure they aren't legal hence why no one does them. I sure the legal requirement is for nothing or if anything is there the EU style with country of registration.
Reminds me - need to order some EU ones for the 230....

Search for show plates and you’ll find them...be aware though as LK says they’re not legal

I just bought stick on eu badges to go on the side of the plates from the bay. Fine if you have enough room to fit them, cheap as.
Bought 2 sets in case one came off in the rain. 2 years later still in place.

I have recently changed mine .I have checked with MOT garage, police etc before buying Black gel resin plates,with a black border,mercedes logo and a slogan linked to the car,BS mark on there. The logo is not illegal but its a trademark/copyright issue potentially

Any spacing issues are a fail and you can of course be stopped ,in the first instance you get 14 days to change them

I bought mine from plates for cars on line, the BGR are not cheap,police told me to stick rather than screw as thieves don't want the hassle of taking them for crimes unless than can just unscrew

Cheers
