The plates came in 3 flavors,,,,Commercial had 1 letter and 5 numbers,,,,Trailers have 3 letters and 3 numbers,,,,,Passenger vehicles have 6 numbers and they probably went to 7 digits towards the end. So that K plate is a Commercial one,,,,,like I got on my van,,,,,But what type plate you need depends on what your title says,,,,,,my van was bought new as by a contracting company,,,,,they registered it as a Commercial Vehicle and thats still what I pay for. Now over the years, if it was sold and the plate colors changed, you could slap a rear seat in it and get Passenger Plates for it. But mine is original. But the rule starts in July, so it basically you are doing a restoration,,,,to make it look like the vans 1st day on the road. But add a metal plate on the rear plate to show you paid your current registation also......
