Number plate holes

Well lads going taking off my jap plates for the test and want to put on my old ones, the old ones have holes from where they were screwed on before but I'll be just sticking them on, someone told me if there's holes in the plate there's supposed to be screws in them is this true or or is if a load of bs
Thanks
Chris.

Glue screw heads on .. no problem

no it does not matter as long as the plate are legal and secured well

Mine passed with the holes in them, I stuck my plate on too cause the screws broke

Just realised my front plate is a motorbike plate lol will it be ok?

Doubt it, there a lot smaller aren't they? Jap plates should pass for test, mine do anyways

I've jap pressed but doubt they will pass

Mine did

I've near had a problem with pressed plates for test

All they want to see is if the number plate is going to fall of is it the right size and font and they are happy. I've even gone in with a number plate upside down and it passed

Here's a pic of my plates here

What do you's think will they pass

its luck of draw really. i had plates for 6yrs passed in 4centres over them yrs and failed them.on the 7th yr as font was to small. and again it passed last time round

Mine went through the test a good few times with Jap pressed plates, no hassle.

it all depends on the size of the plate they alone jap pressed plates alright but have to be a certain size

this comes up alot, and as i do plates i have had countless arguments about plates
once the car has a recess for the jap square plates the pass the nct. . .glanza levin type r etc
standard irish corolla with a huge space for the plate is a fail, as the space is there for a long plate,
got this info from the manager of the nct in tralee and he is far from sound. . .

so if its jap. . .jap plates pass nct
not jap. . .long plates

Mine should have long plates, have a glanza boot on it with the recess and jap pressed plates and passed no bother
