Title: rust
Post by: OutlawStar on 04 January 2008, 12:14

i just got myself some new licence plates and before they arrive i need some suggestions as to how i can get the old ones off.....
the front screws that hold the plates in are rusted to fook and the heads are worn and pretty much non exsistent! i was thinking maybe pliers but im not sure if the ancient screws will allow that method. has anyone else had this problem?

a good pull is always effective! or drill em, they're only screwed into plastic so im sure it wont be too much of an issue mate
