This magnetic number plate fixing kit is screw-free on your plate and sticky-free on your car. The mount screws firmly into any suitable surface – no recess or pre-drilled holes needed – and your plate then clips on and off magnetically, so there’s nothing to re-stick if you ever need to take it off. Comes with everything you need for a secure fit, front and rear.
Two Problems, One Kit
Screw caps mean drilling into your plate. Adhesive pads mean your plate is stuck down for good, and some surfaces – curved bumpers, plastic-backed mounts, coated panels – don’t give them a proper bond in the first place. Our magnetic number plate fixing kit avoids all of that: the mount is a simple, firm screw fixing that works on almost any surface, and your plate attaches to it magnetically – held securely, but easy to take off and put straight back on without any mess.
What’s in the Box
4 magnet mounts, 4 metal discs, 8 3M adhesive pads (4 to fit, 4 spare for later), and 4 fixing screws – enough for a front and rear plate.
How to Fit It
1. Screw the magnet mounts firmly into position – no existing recess or pre-drilled holes needed, just a solid surface.
2. Place a metal disc onto each magnet.
3. Stick a 3M pad to each metal disc and press firmly.
4. Peel away the protective backing to expose the adhesive.
5. Align your plate and press firmly for at least 60 seconds across all four points.
6. Leave for at least 24 hours before removing the plate, for the strongest bond.
Why Drivers Choose It
No drilling through the plate – keeps it structurally sound and doesn’t affect your warranty.
No permanent sticking to the car – handy if you ever swap plates after a reg change, or want to take a plate off before a valet or car wash.
Works almost anywhere – great for curved bumpers, plastic-backed plate mounts, and surfaces where adhesive pads struggle to grip.
Paint-safe: nothing is glued into your bodywork, and the screw fixing is no different to a standard plate fitting.
Strong hold, built to stay put at speed and in UK weather.
Fits Virtually Any Vehicle
Because this magnetic number plate fixing kit just needs a firm surface to screw into, rather than a specific recess or existing holes, it suits cars that other fixing methods struggle with – including curved bumpers and the kind of coated plastic or riveted rear mounts some Mercedes models have.
Frequently Asked Questions
Is a magnetic number plate fixing kit legal in the UK?
Yes. There’s no law against this method of fixing – the mount is permanently screwed in place, exactly like a standard fixing, and your plate is permanently bonded to the metal disc. Nothing about how the plate displays changes; it just clips onto the mount instead of being stuck or screwed directly to the car. Our guide to whether magnetic number plates are legal explains the rules, how to fit the kit and who it suits.
Will the magnet hold my plate securely while I’m driving?
Yes – the mounts use strong fixing magnets designed to hold a plate at speed and in wet weather. This isn’t a lightweight fridge-magnet style mount.
Will it work on my car?
Yes, in almost all cases. Unlike screw caps or pads, the mount doesn’t rely on an existing recess or pre-drilled holes – it just needs a firm surface to screw into, which makes it a good option for curved bumpers and plastic-backed plate mounts that other fixings can struggle with.
Can I take my plate off and put it back on?
Yes – that’s the main benefit. The plate (with its disc already fitted) clips on and off the mount by hand; no need to re-stick anything.
Does this replace adhesive pads or screw caps?
It’s an alternative, not a replacement – pick whichever fixing kit suits you when you order your plates.
