Chassis plate again, sorry!
Sorry to ask this I have seen a number of posts on how to attach the chassis plate to the chassis. I realise riveting is risky in terms of passing IVA as it is meant to be permenantly attached.
My question is for those who welded the plate to the chassis did you plug weld it or does anybody see any issues with this? Dont remember anyone saying they attached it this way? I had a plate made up kindly by Adrian and it would be a far neater job than welding all around it, which is totally overkill. And I really dont want the hassle of sinking it in the frame and cutting a large hole in the box section to fit it!

I think he means the CNC engraved plates that AdrianH does for the VIN numbers.

im sure a few good quality tacks are good enough it in no way is going to fall off
just look at a mini shell its just a bit of stamped tin spot welded on in two places and if you realy wanted to take it off no matter how you attch it there is always a way of getting it off |

What about in the top rail above the pedal box area,that way its easy to see and easy to disguise with the bulkhead around it.
Plug weld and flap disc to polish it off. You could fill the numbers and letters with paint to make it stand out and then varnish or laquer to stop it rusting.

Thank chaps.
Good suggestion about the top rail, possibly just have the number visible through a clear window in the bottom of the dash. I agree, even if it was stamped or etched into the chassis it is easy to cut out and replace. But I believe Mr IVA has issues with this plate not being 'secured'. I see no issues with any method as long as it doesnt fall off! As you say if you want to change it, you can.
