Hi again, another daft question regarding our camplet... the previous owner had a stick on number plate just written in marker, we found a temporary solution to get the trailer home but now want to fix the number plate on properly, does anyone with a cmaplet have a "proper" plastic plate and if so how is it attatched?  I'm just warey of drilling into the back of the kitchen unit if its not a good idea!

Thanks

Andy

I dont know if this is any use to you, but I recently bought a folding camper, and needed to put a new number plate on the back.  The shop I bought it from sold some double sided sticky strips - like a thin foam but seriously gluey on each side.

I bought about half a dozen and just stuck my number plate in place.  Saved the worry of having to drill and it seems to be set rock solid. 

I bought my Camplet new from Camperlands and as both posters pointed out above that is the method they use to fix the plate.

The sticky pads are seriously sticky - I also use them on one of my other cars.

Thanks for the advice, I havent used any of the adhesive number plate fixings before so didnt know if I trusted them!  Will go and grab some this morning and get it sorted!

Hi

I bought my Camplet from a dealer in Holland and he drilled two small holes into the back and used two self tapping screws to hold the plate in place with no problems

I read on another post you have the additional bedroom awning for your camplet.  Hope you dont mind me asking how much was it.  I have two children boy and girl and in time will need one.  we also have a dog now so the extra space would come in handy but dreading phoning camperlands to find out (may pass out with price!!)

I use self adhesive velcro tape in strips. It is an excellent thickness and holds extremely well.

It was £429 last year - ouch!!

I have one and keep it permanently attached, even when folded away. It's good for storage, loo or even extra sleeping. When attached I think the width is still under 5m as the pod sits slightly inside the main area and doesn't extend the full width out if that helps. Never had a problem yet getting it onto a standard pitch.

Ta for that.

I went on Camperlands website according to that it's now £479!!! I knew it would be dear but that shocked me. But I do feel we would benefit from it even from the storage point of view and the loo.

Ta Alison and David.

Got alot to think about.
