i noticed the other day there is lock or something, which has room for a key to go in............... im not sure if this is something to do with an alarm or what??
where is the standard clio alarm switch off? or is this likely to be my Toad Ai606?
Cheers, Marc.

hi, yes as Daz said, i have brought my plates from there. top quailty, top company, very fast service as well. came within 3 days (maybe i was just lucky!)
they also come with a fitting kit if u need it, but i used a set of numberplate surrounds which my mate can supply so u dont need to drill...
Toad AI606 rocks imo....... not had a problem, maybe a tad sensitive, but wicked alarm all the same. i think u can get these fitted for near £300, iv got a feelin its less. but depends on the place.
