Think about it...you have white plates with black letters, and yellow plates with black letters.

The round things are screw covers...depending on where you drill holes you may need yellow covers, black covers or white covers.

What profession are you in as a matter of interest?

I was a Sales Assistant for 10 years and then I worked my way up to an Assistant Manager. I am currently retired.

EIGHT pages on how to mount a number plate....?????

Hi mate, to be fair most of the comments that have bumped up the total number of pages to 9 are comments from other people and not necessarily comments that I have posted. In fact less than 10% of comments on this thread have come from me :lol:

Par for the course for a Calumcco thread.

Not true entirely. Most of my threads contain lots of pages due to the fact that I have severe bad luck when it comes to cars, that's why I have to keep coming back with more questions and seek advice from you lot :lol:

E.G. Had my heater blower been correct first time around then I wouldn't have had to keep coming back for advice.

If my seatbelt hadn't been sent for a passenger side instead of a drivers side then I wouldn't have had to keep coming back for advice.

If someone hadn't put odd spark plugs in my cylinder then I wouldn't have had to keep coming back for advice.

If someone hadn't tied cable ties around my heater blower then I wouldn't have had to keep coming back for advice.

Had my Cylinder 4 misfire not been intermittent then it would have been diagnosed much quicker and I wouldn't have had to keep coming back for advice.

If my garage had supplied 235 60/16 tyres like any decent garage should then I wouldn't have had to come back and ask for alternative places where I could acquire these tyres.

Had the Alloy company where I was planning to order alloys from been able to supply me with them without worrying about the calipers then I wouldn't have had to keep coming back for advice.

OK??? :lol:
