Thread: Rear number plate - too long

i have the correct centre swivel number plate holder this fits to the centre of tail gate jim

as per examples

And that's why some of the Pork pie lamps on the right hand side of S1 didn't have number plate lights, there was no number plate to illuminate. .W.

Thanks for this & I did consider this option, but several friends that have this find the wiring gets broken real quick. I have enough trouble with getting the chains stuck in the tailgate, whether canvas sleeved or not.

if you wanted it mounted under the lights I cant see why you couldent mount it like a defender{little triangular bracket that protrudes from left hand side of the rear of car}

Problem is it would extend beyond the width of the vehicle by about two inches - on the Defender, it is within the width of the flares and the extension is less, due to the extra body width that came in with the Series 2.

I never had any problems with wiring when I had the number plate wiring when I had tailgate mounted number plates.
