love it.

As a factory item, paint matched and all I quite like it... so long as they don't get caught offroad. From the pic it looks well angled to deflect any contact.

I suppose I could get a bracket like that but on my clunker probably easier to go for some slim euro plates.

Anyway, Pickles hopefully you will make it through the 6 month wait without going too mental

I honestly can't work out why the ADR won't allow the almost square rear number plate that's fitted to Defenders everywhere else in the world.

The little wedge thingy is 100% specific for Aussie Defenders...

I can imagine debate and decision on ADR for things like the exhaust facing squarely backwards. Maybe a safety or environmental origin, but the number plate thing has me stumped.

Cheers,

Well, it's going to be a LLLOOONNNGG wait that's for sure, but we've had to wait similar times for the last couple of cars we bought, so I'm sure it won't be too bad.
My daughter's just had her first child, so I'm going to enjoy being Grandpa, & Wifey's off to the Holy Land in a few months, so there's a few things happening to take our minds off it!
Cheers, Pickles.
