Rear Number Plate Space

[LeedsLad]

I've currenty got a 533mm x 152mm yellow rear plate, which is the deep one, rather than the std depth of 112mm.

Even this plate doesn't really 'fill' the area that the IS200 has available for a plate.

I've seen some Rover 75's with a larger than normal yellow rear plate that 'fits' perfectly the space for a plate.

Has anyone managed to get a yellow rear plate to fill the space on a 200 - if so where from? if not - any ideas?

I bought mine from the dealers. They're also available from Halfords.

Mine doesn't fit too bad

Thanks - I'll ask in Halfords/ Local Lex Dealer

I've just measured and in order to fill the space it needs to be (approx) cos its cold and my hands were shaking

570mm across the top tapering to

510mm across the bottom and

170mm high

Halfords/ Local Lex Dealer will do oddball / bespoke sizes?

The 533mm x 152mm yellow rear plate fits ok but I would like all of the flat area to be covered with yellow - just like the ones you see on Rover 75's.

Thanks for closer pic - that helps - that's just like my current 533mm x 152mm one.

As you can see in your pic there's a triangular area to the right hand side of your plate and and long rectangular area at the bottom of your plate that is not covered by yellow plate - thats what I want achieve, the whole available flat surface covered by yellow plate.

Having seen Rover 75's with the 'full' plate I just think that the Lex will look better with a plate that fills all of the available flat space

I've seen post on here before about Fancy Plates - I think I'll call them and Rover dealer on Monday.
