Replacing number plates on a Tesla Model Y (& other Tesla models)

Video by Go Green Autos via YouTube

In this video I replace the UK number plates (or registration plates) on my 2024 Tesla Model Y.
As standard the Tesla comes with aluminium number plates mounted in plastic frames. Many people don’t like the frame and remove this. You can then either fix the number plate on the backing panel or directly on to the bodywork. I explain the pros and cons of this in this video and fit new acrylic number plates as I’m changing to a cherished registration.
This video was filmed in April 2025.
