How are European License Plates Mounted?
Hi,
How are European License Plates Mounted on the front bumper? Is there a 'long' version of the plate 'tag' mount for Euro versions? Here in New Zealand, we have plates that don't fit properly on the JDM mount.. If there was a Euro mount, I could get a Euro sized plate to fit. I cant tell from the photos that i have found, hence the question. Regards Daniel Parker |

I took the JDM license mount off and fitted the NZ plate directly to the bumper.
My NZ car has the same JDM plate mount as my JDM. |

Yes.. my NZ Plate is mounted directly onto my bumper (badly). I plan on getting the Euro mount and Euro plates.

Re: How are European License Plates Mounted?
That will probably be an OEM part. I have successfully bought european-spec SVX parts from Bell & Colvill in the UK and they ship internationally. The German SVX's use the same Euro mount as the UK

Re: How are European License Plates Mounted?
Daniel,
did you check out mine - because it was on an earlier car (Honda Civic Turbo, with skirts all around) - I had to cut it down to fit into the recess area at the rear - using a mill to get sides square with top/bottom.. That plate is now at the front of the SVX - and it is the same size as the mounting plate.
