pbishop Posted July 30, 2008 Share Posted July 30, 2008 I've recently bought a UK registered GT4. I'm shortly going to be swapping over the previous owners plates, and replacing them with mine. I've had a quick look, and they seem to be fairly well glued on. Can anyone give any advice on the best way to remove the existing plates, and fix the replacements. Obviously, I'm keen to avoid any damage to the car. Thanks ... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Stew Posted July 30, 2008 Share Posted July 30, 2008 A jigsaw and then sandpaper........ Kidding. Heat the glue and use dental floss. Get as much off as possible and then just use number plate sticky pads. I find these as good as anything. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

pbishop Posted July 30, 2008 Author Share Posted July 30, 2008 Perfect. Thanks for the advice. So, I'll raid the bedroom, and borrow the wife's thinest g-string and hairdryer. Nothing to worry about love, I'm just off to the garage for a bit.... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
