Just wanted to know where i can get another duplicate VIN plate. I bought a car that was stripped and the whole interior was gone. So the last owner went to a junk yard and bought new dash board and the whole interior. So now the dash board is from another car. So where can i go to get it duplicated?

 

you have to have reciepts for the interior and go through a state patrol inspection.

 

Yup!

If the VIN on the firewall comes back clean, and the dash reciept is legit, they mail the damn thing to you, screws right in place on the dash.

 

the problem is that i lost the receipt for the dash. but its from another civic in the junkyard.

I didnt know you can just screw the VIN plate in? i thought it was bolted down to the dash?

 

Its riveted on. Just drill them out and put new rivets in

 

where can i get rivets?

 

i got a stanley rivit gun and some trade fair for stupid cheap, i assume the are cheap at stores.

Go to Home Depot, Lowes, or whatever store you have where you live, even Kmart. They sell rivet guns and rivets $20 at most for a gun + rivets

 

bullshit. thief

 

no seriously. the guy bought the dash from HAPrecycling.com and when i bought the car from him. he gave me all the paperworks, service records, and the receipt for the dash. I think i mix the receipt up with other receipts i saved. I have to look for it. But if i cant find it. Will it be ok though. I mean the CHP station can pull the VIN from the dash that i got from the junkyard. It will show up as a VIN from a junk civic. I hate thief myself. My hatch was stolen in front of my garage. So here i go buying another salvaged hatch.
