One side burned 2 weeks later and the dual resistors heat to much. (Updated this info 04/07/13)

WASTE OF MONEY AND TIME!

It came from Poland. Here's the link:

nice!!! that LED light is using 4 LEDs inside each housing... interesting solution...

chris, your front license plate is smaller than the EU size lic plates? do you have special front bracket to accomodate the smaller brasilian standard, or your license plate is bolted onto the standard EU plate holder?

Hey Terminator,

here's the pics and the differences between 3 plates (Euro, Brazil, US).
The US plates will fit with the Euro plate holder, for sure.

Very nice. Not too expensive either. I'm curious to see how long these will last.

I see a Russia plate! Hey just a question but ive been trying to get a russian plate or 2, i failed at getting any this winter when i went back but ill try this summer.

DO any of you guys have any laying around you dont need?

TerminatorX5 03-24-2013 09:42 PM

that is a russian plate, i think it is St. Pete region, 78... chris, are you from MathaRussia? how did you end up in Brasil, dude???

I have the russian transit plates that my car came back to the states with, i even used them in the US before i got my US plates back on, and I am using them on my cars, in PA we have only rear plates... it looks funny, two cars with same front plates...

Hey mate, you right! It's a Russian plate, St. Pete. You're good.
By the way, I'm braziliam. I got this plate a few years ago. I was not finding it in any shop, so I ask a taxi driver about it. Cost: 20 buxs. Delivered at my hotel door. Don't ask me how :dunno:.

The US plate I got in Orlando by 2.99 buxs.

iJust to you know, In Brazil, the plates own to car, not to owner. If I sell the car, the plate needs to go too and this never will change. Even in a wreck, the plates goes to trash and the combination will never be used again. In some states (yet) you can choose the letters and numbers when buy a new car, paying 50 bux. But the plates belong to car, always.

And, almost forget to say, here you have to use both plates, front and rear.

Hug, Chris
