    Hey, where do I get those "L" stickers? I need two as far as I know? 1 for front 1 for back?
    Also I know front one goes top left from inside. And where does back one go to block least view?

    And how much are they? Btw preferably in City centre.

    Most petrol stations would sell them. No clue how much they are, but they'll be cheap.

    If you're looking at the boot of the car from the outside, it should go on the lower right corner. Or better still, if you can place it on the bodywork on the rear that'd be preferable.

    Pretty much any petrol station have them

    And I know you won't trim away the white part :)

    Almost any pound shop or petrol station will have them (just ask if they're not on display.)

    Yup, it's one for the front, one for the back.

    I had the front one at top left, back one at top left too. I never really thought about where to put the back one, I don't think it really matters too much. I guess that it makes sense to put it top left because if it's at the right there might be a teeny chance it could block view of someone overtaking you? Unlikely though. As far as I know, legally you can put them anywhere on the body or bumper at front and back.

    How much are they - I'd imagine under €2.

    One thing to note - I asked my dad to pick up a pair for me, and he came back with magnetic ones, that had to be stuck to the outside of the car. Biggest pain in the arse ever - make sure to avoid these! I had to replace them after about a week.

    Halfords, Petrol Stations, any Auto Spares Store.

    If standing infront on the car facing the Windscreen top rt corner of the window.

    If at the back of the car faceing the rear window, also top rt corner.

    I've seen plenty of it too ... I don't get it. :confused:

    The legal requirement is a red L on a white background ... why bother cutting out the L? You're not complying with the requirement, and surely you're only drawing more attention to yourself!

    No need for glue!

    Depends on the type, some stick on the inside of the window, and don't have any. Some stick on the outside and have some.

    Ones for inside the window just cling to it, can be taken up and down repeatedly.

    You can get them in motor factors or most shops even dunnes, tesco and the likes of newsagents and pound (euro) shops maybe.
