Rear angled Number Plate Holder

Post by Ronnie Wilson »

Hi Guys

Can anyone tell me if uk spec Cars were fitted with the rear angled Number Plate Holder. Or was the rear Number Plate in the uk simply screwed to the car body.

Thanks

Yes through plastic grommets which I can't find in the parts breakdown.
They are ALWAYS rustier than you thought!!!!!!

Hi Ron.

Sorry, just so I’m clear. Are you saying the uk cars did have the angled rear Number Plate Holders fitted. If the answer is yes Ron do you think anyone has one that they could take some measurements of so I could fabricate a new piece.

Sorry Ronnie if I have misled you! There is not an angled plate holder. The number plate screws go into plastic grommets which are fitted in the rear panel. Still can't find them in Realoem though.
