MGTC number plate

Post by jddevel » Sun Jan 29, 2023 2:21 am

Can anyone tell me the length of the backing plate for a TC to accommodate the two D lamps the law requires please? As mine only allows for one I`m considering having one made in stainless.

If a UK number plate is 52 cm and each D Lamp is 8.5 cm that’s 69 cm. So 70 should do it.

Thank you Will had sort of "guessed" it at 70-72.

Thanks Jagman2. I`m in the UK so delivery a no no. Anyway looking into getting some made in stainless- OK so not original but then nor is the car. Those available seem to be silly money for what they are.
