Sticky pads to hold on number plate?

[StreetHawk]

Just fitted my 7x5 plate, stuck it on with halfords sticky pads, have others done it like this and has it stayed on ok? Seems pretty secure to me but i'm not sure how much buffeting the plate will get..

Cheers, Nick

ooohh i would maybe secure it with a couple of those yellow number plate screws that you can get from halfords as well.

my plate is on with pads and 2 screws. that has been fine at alll speeds and in windy conditions. it is also standard size as well so got more sail effect.

mine came stuck on with 2 sticky pads from new, a year on, its still attached with the same 2 sticky pads, and yes I have been known to take it to high speeds often, with no problem (all done on the track of course officer! ;-))
