Might pay to make sure the height you have nominated is 1.4 L/M in QLD the plates a to be positioned no more that 1.3 L/M. https://www.qld.gov.au/transport/registration/numberplate/replace-change/index.html#requirements

Just back home in Victoria from getting the ATV 2 serviced in Brendale. The Kedron family go above and beyond in their service. Well worth the trip from Victoria besides it is a good excuse to have a couple of weeks break. A big endorsement to Kedron

Blinky. The fix that Kedron has done for me is legal as per the requirements from the main roads as it is not obstructed from 20L/M from behind nor obstructed from the 20L/M at the 45% angle of sight and is within the 1.3L/M height limit on my van. Have you tried moving your spare's apart? The only problem that I may have is if the Main Roads measure the van length, this then would raise the issue of where to mount the spare wheel, if it is deemed to be over length. Kedron are at present seem to be installing the bracket to new vans.

Gary Please find attached the relocation that "Kedron" have recently carried out. 1. Removed the plate and installed pop rivets and painted same. 2. Removed plate light. Installed reflector to cover light cable hole and installed reflector to other side to balance out visually. 3. Lengthened light cable to come out through the checker panel covered with stainless steel Cowell, cable tied the cable in split conduit to new location. 4. Installed new bracket and reinstalled the number plate. I had to relocate the spare to the left hand side for them to install the bracket in the center, this gives me the option of an additional spare if required. I trust this is of some assistance.

I think Merv is correct on the home state comment. We have been on the road for 9yrs.now inc. a large amount of time in NSW and never been chatted about it.

Yes GrantnCarol, the forum is a treasure trove of great advice and helpful people! We have certainly benefitted from it over the years. This is the site we used for the plate: http://www.numberplates4fun.com/. And at at the time, Val wrote these instructions on how he did it. "I made the bracket out of some sheet iron I had. The wiring actually comes from the rear clearance light at the top back right hand corner. I had the vanity cupboard out at the time and was able to connect into the wiring there and then pass it down behind the toilet. It happened to be a convenient way. I could not see where I could easily get into the wiring because it goes through the frame and under the cladding. Might be worth contacting Kedron for their advice."
