Has anyone got any photos or ideas has to mount the smaller number plate on the back of mini without drilling all new holes and without it looking a bit lost in space on the Australian number plate holder, it would probably look better on 850 type holders.

I have been looking for some kind of an adaptor mounting plate but can find nothing.

See timmys posts. He ordered a blank number plate off eBay. Is was 850 euro size but you can get standard NSW size too.

For a while I had an old period NSW plate behind the historic. Probably not technically legal but the numbers of the old plate are pretty much covered up.

I went to my local plastic shop. He made me a standard plate size, drilled holes to match old plate holes for $10.

I did this:

The four "screws" in the historic plate do not penetrate the number plate holder.

I was trying to do mine in time for Bathurst last year.....just gave up and drilled 4 new holes......

Mine has the wider flap, but you can buy custom or blank Aus sized plates from eBay


One like this would work for the Aus size
