Yellow registration number plate

Post by Dinko9 »

Hey guys, how much would it be for me to replace my white registration number plate with a yellow registration number plate?

Thanx

I paid R160 for the set, its SABS approved but they told me, that it isn't ideal to take yellow plates, I don't know the reasoning behind it, I just wanted an old plate that had to be SABS approved.
The ONLY constant, is CHANGE...

Yellow Plates still sort of legal in CT (some numberplate places won't make them up for you with the SABS stamp)

Why do you need yellow? Yellow was phased out long ago.. Are you from the UK?

same reflective properties as the current white plates. so no, you can't use them to defeat speed cameras
It's a daft trend, just like laminXing your fog lights yellow. The 80s want their trends back :lol:

I've gone past multiple roadblocks, even been pulled over in a routine check without a problem with my yellow plates. :thumbup:

I doubt they have an issue with it, unless they're wanting to stack up some reasons to fine you for kak, I drive through towards daily and have yet to have a problem.
