You are lucky Dellboy, here in Renfrewshire we have to drill into the bumper which is a joke

I prefer the back window (East Dumbartonshire & Argyll and Bute) or changing the back registration plate for a square one & putting the reg plate & licence plate next to each other like they allow in East Renfrewshire & North Lanarkshire \:D/

We get them supplied by the council when you get your plate (1 set only, so if you break em you buy the next set).

The must be fixed by either a strapping kit, or rivits/screws.

I've seen guys being sent home for using "Number Plate Tape"

P1sh I know, but those are the rules Glasgow City Council enforce.

@ delboy

The strapping kit is instead of the rivits I think - they usually ask you do you want straps or rivits.

Very long tie straps will do though - they are basicly what the strapping kit is.

I just drill mine on - only cost £40 to have the bumpers "smart repaired"
