Anyone know where I can order a plate online that does'nt require documents being sent off?

also Im thinking of getting a 7"x5" standard looking plate. I assume that even tho it isnt strickly legal, it will not be a problem as I see far too many tiny plates around.

The website says they need the documentation!

It's very simple, if you don't provide the documentation, the plate is issued illegally - ie: not for road use.

Any plate that you get that is issued otherwise, is a show plate - MalPlates do provide these, and you don't have to provide documentation!

However, if you want to be legal, you need to provide original documents or registration and identity. That's the law, that's the way they ALL have to work now, and have done for quite a few years. Stupid I know, blame the politicians.

Wishful thinking.

It probably will be a problem, it's the best excuse any Copper needs to pull you over for being a little bit over the limit, or just because he's had a bad day. Then they'll move onto your can, brakes visor, and before you know it, you'll have producers and fines everywhere! :lol:
