ED plates: keep 1 or leave both?

Powerbeast · 01-19-2012, 01:05 AM

Leave both if you don't I'll take 1

I left both on when I dropped my car off at the Munich airport, and that is the way my car showed up at the dealer, still has both of them on today...

I left both but when I was dropping the car off they told me that I could take one (they said for cars going to the US they needed both plates but only 1 for Canada)

I didn't bother since it was attached with double sided tape and in transit someone stole my rear plate

For those who did Euro Delivery,

Did you have to drill new holes into the trunk in order to mount U.S. plates?

No the bracket the plate mounts to gets swapped for a US one

I'm putting my CA license plates on. I'm looking at the rear ED plate, and don't see conventional screws. Instead I see white caps. Do I pull them off or do I twist them off to get to screws?

Plastic caps pop off
