compliance plate

[poita]

can it be moved legally?
its in the way of where my strut brace needs to go

for those that dont know or cant read im in QLD :p

[platypus]

in the way how?

to move it i think it needs to be documented that its been moved.... in which case they will probably hit you up for a mod plate too

[poita]

its on the strut tower, exactly where the bolt is to go through.

[EL BURITO]

this may sound stupid but can you take out one of the rivets and leave the other one attached so really its still attached in its original position

[Dave]

My advice....... Do it any way...........


Others opinion..... thats stupid.


2 Options, easy cheap way......... long expencive way.

Either works......... One will get you introuble with Mr policeman........ The other wont.


But in saying that, Do you draw attention to your self and your car ?

Being an astra its unlikely theyl ask ya to pop the hood ;)

[poita]

its a calibra dave ;)
i do get pulled over prob once every coupla weeks.
one copper told me its cause its a 'modified' car, i tried not to laugh.
but never had the hood popped.
and teh nights wen i know they are checkin cars over i stay at home.
cause they pick on the smallest things that are bullshit, just to fine ppl.

[EL BURITO]

other thing that can be considered is if yo u move it to the fire wall are copers going to know it was not ment to be there in the 1st place ?

[platypus]

actually since it will all match who cares? its not as if any details are changing

[Dave]

yeah man just move it, its not like they have a detailed description on where it ment to be........ Actually i think it only has to be attached and visable, it doesnt realy matter where it is.

[EL BURITO]

its not like you are grinding down the VIN number or something
