Recently acquired a 90 Corvette.
The owner wanted to keep the fitted US personalised plates.
No Worries!. After plate swaps, I ended up with Black on White plates, which as we know cover the reversing lights on the rear, and dont fit on the front, (C4)
No worries I'll reluctantly lash out on some US Style plates @ $308, thats of course with the original random numbers, ie nothing special.
Specialised plates are OK, but not at their prices or the ongoing yearly charges (rip off). Paid my money and wait 4 them 2 b made.
Just recieved the letter to come and get them - great - got home & tried to fit them, but they have NO mounting Holes punched in them.
Rang RMS - explained the situation, she put me on hold, then some more hold, then a little more, then came back with a "bullsh#t" story on how all fittings are different, therefore no holes, I must do them.
I explained that over 68 years, all the different plates I'd recieved had holes - multiply holes - punched by them for mounting.
I have no drill or drill bits, appears that each and every customer must first buy an electric drill and then butcher the NEW Plates - Yes She agreed that is what I must do. I did not regress into the vageries of rust or the law pertaining to defacing Number Plates.
Am I being pedantic here, or are Australians just tooo easily led by the nose by Politicians or Burecrates who cut corners at our expense especially when we pay thru the nose for "SERVICE !!!".
Bfit have you got US style plates and a hole punch (prefer punch not drill)
