You can secure it anywhere providing it is easily legible when viewed from the front.

MOT wise it must be readable at around 20 mtrs.

I once passed an MOT with my numberplate placed on the dashboard.
300 Series Disco.

Current model I'm working on
= Range Rover.

Technical Tip.
Operating a vehicle with just one tyre under inflated by 20% (8PSI) can reduce the life of the tyre by up to 9500 miles, and can increase the vehicles fuel consumption by as much as 4%.

Just remembered these number plate mountings from Devon 4x4 or you could just use a couple of 90 degree brackets mounted to the top of the roller fairlead to bolt the number plate too.  :wink:
