These new license plates along with the sticker on the windshield would certainly be useful. It adds another layer of security against theft.

When do these 'High Security License Plates' with the finalized become mandatory?

Where can they be bought in Pune city?

I am seeing a lot of the High Security Plates around now. The web site of Kerala DMV says they are mandatory, but I don't think it is enforced.

How is the system works? Is there a scheme of approving sources? Or vendors just produce them. Who controls the holograms? Does DMV issue them?

Does anyone know?

Also, is there a vendor in Cochin who makes them? I like the "official look" of the plates, and would like to have one. The couple of accessory shops I asked had no clue.

I dont know about Kerala but they arenot mandatory here yet.

A cheaper alternative for security is to etch the cars number on all windows.

Was planning on getting the etching done on my car when I get it back from the body shop. Anyone knows where I can get it done in Bangalore?

Thanks,
Rajan

Contact theMAG from bangy. He has them on his car.

Never noticed this. Can anybody shares some pics of what it looks like?

Nothing fancy. Your regn number is etched with acid on all the glasses of the car. It will be too expensive for a potential thief to replace all the glasses. Meant to act as a deterant for theft. It is hardly noticeable and you need to look for it. I guess it will be something like font size 24 or 36.

Cheers,

You can order the number plates with Emperor.

Check theMag's garage.

Jk is there any website for that?Is there any website for our RTO?

Etching can be done by any accesory shop, even dealer do it, they charge around 500 bucks.

How does it act as a deterrent? If the font size is so small, is the thief going to look for it?

etching was done on my car windows by the service station on the 1st service. costed 150 Rs. Maybe you can contact your A.S.S center

No. But the Police will look for it!! :)

And every thief knows what it not good for him! :eek:

Can we have some closer Number Plate photos please: I saw theMag's Swift's pics but don't find anything on the glasses :Frustrati

High security number plate means etching on glass?

I thought people here were saying about having something done on the number plates itself?
