Antitheft mounting for car licence plate - has support plates with rolled over edges holding licence plate by compression

摘要

The anti-theft mounting for a car licence plate has two backing plates with rolled-over edges on three sides, to slide together for enclosing the plate. The backing plates contain depressions to locate the heads of fitting bolts, and the assembly is bolted to the vehicle with anti-theft nuts. The soft aluminium plate is further secured in the backing plates by pressing down the rolled edges. Any attempt to remove the plate damages it. The secure mounting for the fitting bolts can only be removed by cutting through the backing plate and damaging the licence plate.
