After a few weeks of putting it off and off... I need to get the Duke through its MOT and the only thing left to do is a legal size number plate....

Is it the Lettering that has to be right size or the whole number plate?

I have aplate that I'm gonna swap it to once its passed, but worried that if I stick a standrd plate on its, it will obscure the indicators on the bracket so want a slightly smaller one but with stanadrd size letting?

Anyone help?

as far as i am aware the size of the plate is important as well as the lettering size

Size of letters and plate is supposed to be correct, depends how nice the tester is.

not always, no need for a 9x7 if you only got a 6 digit reg, would look daft with a 3inch yellow border around it

to be fair as long as you can read it from 20 feet  it should be ok ?but the law now states has to be a cetain size ?but the mot law doesn't ? its a conflict of interest ?so fuck it i got a small fucker ? and a legal one for mot's ?

My 7x5 has been through 3 MOTs and never been failed....And no, the examiner hasn't been a mate...Been different every time 

I haven't taken the piss with the lettering though....It's a standard font.
