Numberplate screws

Mar 14, 2012 3 Replies

Do they have to be plastic? Wife found plate on the ground today with both heads snapped off, either vandalised or knocked off by a careless parker. Have a temporary replacement (socket screws and washers)which look OK as both were through letters/numbers, but do I need to go and buy proper plastic ones?


Buy the anti-theft jobs from Halfords - they come with a metal screw and a coloured cap.

Often given away by the local cops - especially if there has been a rise in number plate thefts in your area.

Contact your local Neighbourhood policing team and ask!
