Guest Scootre Guests Posted 01/07/04 10:59 AM Share Posted 01/07/04 10:59 AM Dumb question number 318576....The windscreen on my missus' car has a decent crack in it, so I'm going to get it replaced.Any tricks to remove and 'reinstall' the rego label or can I just go along to the RTA and have a replacement issued... what's the go?Never had to replace a 'screen before.

XRBloke Donating Members 1,219 Member For: 21y 11m 23d Posted 01/07/04 11:27 AM Share Posted 01/07/04 11:27 AM You should be able to ring them and get a replacement label? If not try rubbing it with a moist rag and then pulling it off, should come straight off but I dont know if it will still restick, if not then just get some of that clear book cover stuff and stick it back on with that!Im pretty sure they will restate you with a brand new lable though!

No doubt after you pay them some ridiculous "reprint fee"......Go the razor blade, scrape the old one off, and grab some clear "Contact", and use that to re-attach it.

Clear contact or sticky tape to put it on the new windscreen. Or just wait until you renew your rego to replace the windscreen! :lol: Link to comment https://www.fordxr6turbo.com/forum/topic/11611-replacing-the-rego-sticker/#findComment-139682 Share on other sites More sharing options...

(in Victoria anyway). Link to comment https://www.fordxr6turbo.com/forum/topic/11611-replacing-the-rego-sticker/#findComment-139815 Share on other sites More sharing options...

Guest Scootre Guests Posted 02/07/04 08:52 AM Share Posted 02/07/04 08:52 AM Thanks everyone. I'll give it a go with the wet sponge and razor. And yeah, they are keen.... despite a search of their site, the RTA has no info on this subject, so I emailed them and got a response today. The replacement cost is $16 and all you do is go to a registry office and present your drivers' lic (NSW).$16 for a sticker... ho hum. For $16 I'll reassemble the bloody bits of it and use clear contact and sticky tape as you guys have suggested.
