Best number plate / plate holder style

[JPanDAX]

Speed flip. But you have to actually operate it yourself. Kinda defeats the purpose as most people get pinged by cameras they don't notice or are unaware of.

Unless you want to deliberately speed through a camera!

Agreed.I don't really understand the point of the speedflip.

I ended up going with the normal size euro plates - attached by double sided tape. I'm quite happy with the fit on the front and the back. The overhang on the front mount is negligable. I didn't even notice until I ran my fingers underneath it.

#OFFTOPIC: Mate, that's a bloody long driveway you have there! Can you reach 100kph on it?

Given the increased use of fixed and point-to-point speed cameras I'm starting to really like the idea of these number plate holders:
Speedflip.

i wouldnt really call it "speed" flip its pretty slow

hey guys,

is it right that you cant fit a full size front euro plate to the LAKIN custom front bracket?

[Corey_R]

Not at all... they are literally CUSTOM brackets. So you can order whatever size bracket, to be mounted however you can think of (within engineering and legal reason of course).

Ok, so when i order the front Euro Std bracket for the GTI the full size euro will fit fine? I thought it only fits the slim euro as per your install Corey.

Ill be calling Lakin on Monday to order a set and hopefully have them delivered directly to my dealer as the dealer wont let me take the car home with the plates stuck on via 3M tape as apparently its not RWC for them not to be screwed in. They have offered to fit the brackets for me though if i can get them to them before pickup on Thursday.

Custom means he customer builds each order to the specifications required by your places, your car, and your desired fitted style.

Just give him a call, tell him what you need, and he'll take care of you.

thanks mate, ill give him a call tomorrow/monday and place the order. hopefully the dealership does a good job installing the brackets/covers..

The Lakin Euro std plate fits the Vic Euro plates just fine, but call him and confirm everthing first to make sure you get what you need.
The front plate takes the place of the OEM plate holder, so make sure your dealer takes this off first, and from memory i think the Lakin plate goes straight into the same holes for mounting.

The rear Lakin plate still needs to be screwed onto the car though i think.
