The under license plates are respectively six-part and consist of black Velcro. Each license plate holder consists of three loop tapes and three hook tapes together. The front of the ribbons is all over coated with the respective Velcro material. On the back there is also the full surface Adhesive surface. When delivered, there is still a transparent one on the adhesive surface protector, which is deducted for assembly. Three Velcro strips are glued to each protective film. The Size: the strips are 9 cm by 4,5 cm. As with license plates, the corners of the strips are rounded so that they do not protrude after installation. A license plate holder consisting of three loop tapes and three hook tapes weighs only 20 g including the protective film. That completes the license plate holder significantly easier than conventional license plate holders made of plastic.

Our field test we carry out on the rear bumper of a standard compact car. Here we first remove the old license plate holder. This one is at four screws attached to the plastic of the bumper and dismantled accordingly quickly. The Velcro straps are attached with a adhesive connection attached to the rear bumper and license plate. Adhesive joints can be very high forces transferred, but require a corresponding Handling. That's why we strictly follow the specifications of the installation during assembly Operating manual.
The assembly takes place in several work steps. First, the area of the rear bumper where the license plate is to be attached is identified using one of the alcohol wipes thoroughly gereinigt and subsequently optional. Subsequently there will be three Velcro with barbs attached. We fasten one of the tapes in the middle of the vehicle, the other two so that the outer edge is just inside the license plate. Instead of measuring, you can simply use the removed license plate as a template. In principle, it must be ensured that the bumper in the area of the Velcro straps has a continuous surface having. For example, it is not possible to attach the Velcro strips to the grille of a radiator grille.
Since the Velcro straps are slightly smaller than the license plate itself, it is accurate to the millimeter Positioning not mandatory. In our test, we use the holes in the bumper into which the old license plate holder was screwed as a guide for positioning. It is important to ensure that the adhesive tapes are already in the first step sufficiently accurate be glued on, as a renewed detachment due to the high adhesive strength of the adhesive not is possible.
In the next step, the back of the indicator cleaned and also dried. The Velcro strips are attached here at the same distance as on the bumper, so that when attaching the license plate the hook and loop strips right on top of each other lie.
Now it can License-plates an der bumper attached become. The Velcro straps are about two centimeters shorter than the number plate. This difference can fine alignment be used by placing the loop tape and the Velcro tape slightly offset on top of each other. If necessary, the license plate careful removed and reattached .
Overall, due to the good description, the assembly is also suitable for users who are not technically gifted problem-free feasible. However, he is assembly effort through the cleaning and the triple positioning (bands on the vehicle, bands on the license plate, license plate on the vehicle) compared to screw plates increased. The license plate holder is also for mounting on any arched bumpers suitable. The limit here is not the license plate holder, but the flexibility of the license plate.
After drying liable the mark fixed on the vehicle, detachment while driving not to be feared. Still, with wider bands would be one higher adhesion been possible. In our case, we carried out the test on a license plate with the standard width of 52 cm. Stay here approx. 3/4 the back from the Velcro straps Free. So there would have been plenty of room for wider tapes.
Particularly positive falls the optics on. Unlike many alternative solutions, the Velcro license plate holder is actual frameless, since the entire holding mechanism is hidden behind the license plate.

However, we can also understand that the small area of the Velcro straps on standard license plates still offers room for improvement, and an even better hold could be achieved with a larger area.
