Tasmanian Business Announces the Release of a Complete Number Plate Fitting System.

Dec. 13, 2008 - PRLog -- After a development period of almost twelve months, LAKIN Custom Plate Brackets a small business on the North Central coast of Tasmania, Australia, has released a range of vehicle-specific brackets designed to match the various styles of Australian number plates with a broad range of vehicles sold into the Australian market.

Their brackets overcome a number of problems inherent with standard methods of attaching number plates (generally a couple of self-tapping screws in the top edge of the plate, often drilled directly through the bumper or boot lid).  On European sourced vehicles especially, the manufacturer-fitted mounting points are often ignored completely.

Most of us have suffered from rattling number plates, sharp edges that cut fingers when we wash our cars, damaged paintwork etc.  It’s nice to know there is such a simple solution.

The founder of Lakin Custom Plate Brackets, Mr Philip Reeve, began developing the idea after taking delivery of his Audi A4.  He was disappointed to find the dealership had simply drilled into the brand new boot lid above the threaded holes provided by the manufacturer.  The number plate rattled and clattered, and the paintwork behind it suffered as a result.  After also filling requests from friends for similar brackets on their cars, Mr Reeve realized there was a market for his easily fitted and effective system.

As a result, his small business now manufacturers a growing range of brackets in many formats.  The idea is surprisingly simple and the brackets are almost totally unobtrusive when fitted.  The end result is that your number plates can now look like they really belong on your car – not just something tacked on as an afterthought.

They also provide a truly “custom” service for vehicles which they haven’t yet listed in their inventory.  The personal nature of their business allows them to design and manufacture new lines, usually within their normal delivery timeframe.

The brackets are becoming popular with customers who have personalized number plates.  With the relatively high cost of these plates, it makes sense to fit them neatly and in a way that protects them from damage, as well as protecting the paintwork beneath them.
