The plates are now sorted...mine were riveted on so I just drilled through and the number plate poped off....Ive used sticky pads to put the new plates on. Decent;)

Cheers for the info. They are defo riveted on, looks like the drill is coming out....:devilish:

Arr, I thought mine were screwed on but the head is not a cross or line, and when i looked behind the screw type thing it looked like it was riveted on. I was twisting it for ages and it never came off. My old 1.2 clio plates were stuck on but the cup is just a nightmare.

Can anyone tell me how to take off the number plates from a 172 Cup?? It seems there is some sort of rivet keeping them on. I need my old ones off asap if anyone can help:confused:

Does anyone know how to remove the front and back number plates from a 172 cup?? It seems theyre riveted on or sumit......my new plates need to go on asap but i cant get the old sods off!:@

172 cup for just over two weeks now. Totally bored of it....its just not fast enough;)
