jdean Posted October 23, 2012 Share Posted October 23, 2012 Does anyone know how you get those license plates with the Lam Prom Thep background? My Thai friends say they are only available by auction but that does not seem right as I see so many of them. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
LivinginKata Posted October 23, 2012 Share Posted October 23, 2012 Yes, that's correct, they are only offered up by auction by the Vehicle Licence Office. Every 1 or 2 years. Last Auction was earlier this year. I have noticed ads in the Phuket Gazette offering by private sale, these plates are legally transferable. I have a couple myself, but not for sale. last auction - http://www.phuketgaz...ticle12899.html Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
patongphil Posted October 23, 2012 Share Posted October 23, 2012 You do not neccesarily have to get the special numbers. There used to be a shop on Sai Nam Yen road in Patong that would paint your existing plates - moved in the last few months to who knows where. Pity as I was just about to get mine done. Not sure of the legalities but many get them done this way. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

stevenl Posted October 23, 2012 Share Posted October 23, 2012 What's the attraction? Face. So Patongphil is even more about face then, trying to imitate the original face giving items. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Valentine Posted October 24, 2012 Share Posted October 24, 2012 Aren't they pretty much standard in other countries? Helps to advertise the province or state. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

noob7 Posted October 25, 2012 Share Posted October 25, 2012 (edited) http://www.ebay.com/...=item2a22365cf8 There are really a lot of them. Is the auction thing not only for the special lucky numbers? Never really was interested in one, but I would think, you can transfer every one to a picture background. But maybe they sell all, also with 'normal' numbers, for a high price on auctions, only. Edited October 25, 2012 by noob7 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
