Welcome to the new look VWWatercooled
After much work and little sleep there is a new version of the forums running on more powerful and recent hardware as well as an upgraded software platform.
Things are mostly the same, but some things are a little different. We will be learning together, so please post questions (and answers if you've worked things out) in the help thread.

just had a look at the fitting instructions. Its a piece of plastic with 2 holes in it and some double sided tape! Not a bad way of doing it but you could knock something like that up yourself in a couple minutes.

Secureaplate is Australia’s only powder coated aluminium universal registration plate adapter. It has been designed to suit a wide variety of vehicles with European hole locations to achieve easy fitting of Australian registration plates, including slimline without the need to drill the registration plate or vehicle. This plate allows the original screw holes to be used in the registration plate maintaining the appearance of the plate and vehicle.Originally posted by Tim View Post

thats all it is a metal plate with holes in it and you use double sided tape to secure the plate

why not just stick the plate to the car with double sided tape?? much cheaper optionOriginally posted by Preen59It doesn't matter what car you drive.. If you're a complete wanker.. People still won't want to talk to you..

I would be scared it would fall off...
PS. With the Secureaplate, you still use screws to attach it. The double sided tape is to stop rattles.Last edited by vectorskink; 27-08-2009, 03:56 PM.Tim

That stuff sticks very well indeed - I was worried I might break the plate getting it off, and spent quite some time getting the foam and glue off both the car and the plate.2017 MY18 Golf R 7.5 Wolfsburg wagon (boring white) delivered 21 Sep 2017, 2008 Octavia vRS wagon 2.0 TFSI 6M (bright yellow), 2006 T5 Transporter van 2.5 TDI 6M (gone but not forgotten).Comment

just buy them from TIM or DUBADDICTION! I got them, fits perfect, but need a bit of drilling on the actually holder, but worth it IMO!Comment

Why not just use a clear number plate cover/frame with the mounting holes in the corner and use them to secure the plate. I have always done on my vehicles with no holes thru centre of plates etc.
