Triple Number Parks Plates
 
this may help you guys, called around looking for triple number plates - nearly impossible without a hookup.

basically most autoplans got the same plate numbers range for all 3 plates, but the PA, PK, and PW are what makes them unique. my sheet is super messy and locations all over the place, but here you go:

TSN Marine 710-719
InsureBC Granville 710-719
Sussex 104 Ave 380-389
Sussex Ambleside 580-589
C&N Insurance 020-029, 44
Allied 6th 080-089, have 088
Tony Lau Granville 600-609
Garrison Rumble 210-219
Cooperators Rumble 380-389 have 388
Pelling & Ass. Granville 200-209
Mapleleaf Fraser 950-959
Westland 255 6th 160-169
Landmark Kingsway 230-239
Wong's Insurance Main - jerks, "come see in person"
Tony Lay Main St 991-998, 999 gone
Sussex poco 360-369
Park Georgia Aberdeen 870-879
Park Gerogia No3 861-869
Sussex W3rd 570-579, have 577
Sussex Grandview 950-969
Sussex 1st Ave 390-399
Sussex Pitt Meadows 822-829
Park Ins Highgate 590-599
Sussex Marine 738-749?
Westland 6th 430-439
Collingwood Ins Centre 990-998
Rand and Fowler 49th Oak 810-819
Kastelein Stout 320-329
Sussex Westwood 120-129, have 123
Westland 5213 ladner trunk 950-959
Sussex Kingsgate 220-229, have 222
perpetual insurance metro tnt 500-509, have 500

Westland was the most helpful, as they searched all their branches in lower mainland for me to find the triple plate I was looking for - she also searched for whatever pattern I was looking for too.

good luck!

SpeedStars 01-31-2017 12:42 PM

Somehow got my bear plate for $28 :fullofwin:

Ironwood insurance on Cambie has 010-020
Hub insurance at rmd automall has 240-260
Can't find any triple digits either.

Schill Austin 210-219
Schill North Road 520-529

I didn't bother calling anymore places since they are only getting 10 in at a time and finding the numbers you want will be very hard without a hookup

Are day stickers mandatory? I.E. the sticker that indicates what calendar day the insurance expires. Reason i ask is i don't have one and haven't had one for a couple years. I still have the month/year sticker.

Special K 01-31-2017 09:02 PM

Olympic ones are legit. I thought they didn't let you keep those anymore, guess I'm wrong!

320icar 02-01-2017 06:18 PM

Am I the only one who didn't give a shit what number I got...

underscore 02-01-2017 06:28 PM

I really want PK421x but I think the odds of being able to find it (let alone it being in Kelowna) are slim.

320icar 02-01-2017 06:34 PM

Deserves a million thanks ^^^^^

RRxtar 02-01-2017 09:16 PM

Ill be honest. I think BC has about the best plate in north america. Its pretty clean and nice colours. I don't like these plates with images at all but they are better that some of the plates down south. Man they have ugly plates.

I still have Olympic plates I kept as souvenier when I changed back to regular plates. Can I still re activate them?

kkthind 02-01-2017 11:19 PM

Looking for a 666 porteau cove plate.

I like the Olympic plates. Also, we drive old vehicles now.

If you understood the reference I was trying to make to TK-421 I'm amazed :lol

320icar 02-02-2017 09:50 AM

Duh. I wasn't born yesterday dude. I knew right away. Hopefully not the only one

You can transfer the plates to a new car, I've done it a few times now to keep the plates. Its starting to peel now and kinda fading, thus thinking of changing. Just looking for a good #.

Can't find any triple digits either.

for some reason, the system would only charge me $18 compared to the original $50. they told me to come back the next day since they wouldn't give it to me at that price

come back the day after and this new person gave it to me for $31 instead

Klobbersaurus 02-02-2017 07:58 PM

i got mine for $15, they pro-rate the cost of the plate, my insurance expires in may

6o4__boi 02-03-2017 08:09 AM

i don't know what trickery or wizardry the cute agent at my autoplan did but after poring over the paperwork...i paid $12 for mine

i did see the $40 annual fee tho
i wonder how long the $40 fee will be applied...is this a lifetime thing? or is it like the olympic plates where it was waived after X years

StylinRed 02-03-2017 08:40 AM

anyone got a pic of the bear one on their car?
