Ahh, so i want to fit my own reg plate i have had. This is no big deal i think, online i go and order my plates.
My old plates were screwed on by those plastic colour coded screws.
Easy, it thought! LOL, if only i had known.
I go for the first screw and its seized innit! Off comes that plastic head leaving the screw in the steel thread insert.
And again for the next one, and the next two for the rear plate too.
So by now i am crabbit, i don't even own a bloody drill to drill em out of the thread inserts, and i got work in an hour.
I had to resort to sticking them on with the supplied double sided tape, and now having used that stuff before, the next time i want to swap plates or i sell it and have to swap plates, i am gonna have a f'ing load of sticky tape to try to remove, and boy is it a b**tard to shift once that stuff is stuck on your car!
All in all, a bloody 5 min job turned into a f'ing nightmare.
I mean, plastic screws in metal inserts, yeah, good idea that one Subaru!
Ya damn tweeaaaattttssss!
At least a steel screw would have moved! LOL.
Now where did i put my drill i used to own???????

 

mine done exactly the same

 

Drill out easy and Halfords sell the screws....

There is a deliberate thread difference between the screws and inserts so that they don't come loose, many manufacturers use them....
