The sticky pads work fine as long as u've cleaned the dirt etc off of wherever you're stickin them 2. Washed the car with pressure washer a good few times and made sure a shot behind the plates. Didn't come off with that so i doubt they will at all. | |

My back plate is stuck on with sticky pads from halfords... has been for well over a year now, and the front is stuck on with side strip tape... It won't move, not even when you try pulling it off! Don't drill your plates, looks a mess!!!!! | |

haha really well when u take the plates off there should be a rectangle hole, with a movable screw hole, i fink my dad drilled into this part so the new screws supplied would fit he only used stickypads to stop them flapping out on the sides. | |

well, take off the old ones, sumtimes the screws may fit into the holes, but if they dont u may have to drill new holes (hopefully not), but stickypads will eventually come off, specially if a lil pikey comes along and rips them off | |

no no mate dont jus use sticky pads jeeze, right wat u need to do is drill two new holes onto the plates from the back, because when u remove the old ones there may not be ne room to screw them onto the bumper. I had to do this the other day, u only use the stickypads to support the plates while ure screwing them in. | |

you can stick them on with the sticky pads, as long as its secure its ok. halfords sell them to if you run out:thumbs: | |
