No les ha pasado que compran un auto europeo y que al querer ponerle la placa se dan cuenta de que el espacio para la misma es de tamanio europeo y no quieren romper su defensa?

si es asi, pues esta es la mejor forma de colocar su placa.

Aunque finalmente terminaremos atornillando la placa, envez de hacerle 4 hoyos (de la placa americana) solo le haremos 2 (como la placa europea), en mi caso la defenza ya tenia marcados los puntos donde habia que agujerar la placa, dichos puntos son para la placa europea.

Aqui en mexico se puede conseguir ese estilo de placas pagando un poco de dinero mas por ellas, pero es a riesgo, si quiere, un transito te puede parar y multar, como a mi me gusta mas que la placa valla con el disenio del automovil pues me gustaria mejor tener mis placas europeas, pero no me quiero arriesgar, aun asi tengo la esperanza de qu algun dia transito desida aceptar ese tipo de placas tambien, si es el caso ya no tendre que preocuparme por mandar arreglarle los 4 hoyos que hize para poner la americana y volver a hacer mas hoyos para las placas europeas.

espero que les guste y les sea de utilidad mi tutorial.

Yo también hablo castellano, y me cuesta bastante lidiar con esos traductores automáticos (benditos sean), pero me da la impresión que por cortesía, si los dueños de Instructables se manejan en inglés, uno debe adecuarse a ellos, no ellos a nosotros. A mí me disgustan los inmigrantes que luego de 40 años de estar en Argentina siguen hablando en italiano. Es una cuestión de respeto a la mayoría.

No lo tomes a mal, es una opinión válida como cualquiera.

Por otro lado, buena colaboración.

Traducción vía EPALS, corregida:

I also speak Castilian, and I find difficult enough to fight with those machine translators (saints are), but I have the impression that for courtesy, if the owners of Instructables are managed in English, I must adapt to them, not them to me. They displease me the immigrants that after 40 years of being in Argentina continue speaking in Italian. It is a question of respect to most.

Don't take it to bad, it is a valid opinion as anyone.

On the other hand, good collaboration.

yeah, you rigth about the respect... i alredy edited the tutorial, to make it more understandable in english. sometimes the people are too bat to learn a lenguage or they just like they lenguage jeje XD, loock for the good thing, you can have italian friends, and they can teach you italian!! i like italian lenguage jeje!!!

[rimar2000]

I learned something of Italian (enough like to be 3 weeks in Italy without language problems) reading retail books with a dictionary to the side.

I believe that in general it is question of intending it.

I congratulate you to have translated the instuctable.

[Daniel Design]

:D that's good!!! the next semester, maybe i will take italian lessions in my school!!! jeje i know, but my point is, that not alwas cns someone talk in the contry lenguage that they are. tanks!! i tell you tanks for the opinion that make me do the translate!! PD. what mean intending it in spanish :S

[LasVegas]

Great Job and great translation!

Only correction... "American Symbol" should be "American License Plate" even though they represent a "registration" and not a "license." It doesn't even translate in our language.

[Daniel Design]

jeje tanks! i do my best to translate.. i will correct the word you told me, i used match fist, the i change it to emblem, that's because i didn't know the exactly word. tanks for the correction i apreciate that. the corections are welcome jeje that's another way to learn ;)

hola, oye, buen proyecto, lo unico es que es que la mayoria de los usuarios de este sitio hablan ingles, aunque muchos, como nosotros hablamos mas que una lengua.

Rimar2000, algo que que dijiste tenia un mensage para todos "si los dueños de Instructables se manejan en inglés, uno debe adecuarse a ellos, no ellos a nosotros". yo creo que si deberiamos poder expresarnos en nuestros propios idiomas, tambien hacerlos accesibles para los que hablan ingles. (con unas buenas traductiones).

hey, good project, the only thing is that the majority of the users of this site speak english, although many, like (us) speak more than one language.

Rimar2000, you said something that has a message that we can all take in " if the owners of Instructables run (drive) the site in english, one should adapt to that, no make them change to fit us". I beleive that we should not feel like we should not express ourselves in our own languages, but just make them avalible for for everyone who does not speak that language, so put it in inglish. (with some good translations).

[Daniel Design]

jeje si lo se, por eso puse tambien una explicación breve alprincipio de cada paso en ingles y traté de traducir y darme a entender lo mejor que pude, no manejo 100% en ingles pero hago lo mejor que puedo, el instructibo es bilingue, solo con un poco mas de explicación en español.

---

jeje yes i know, thats why i put an litle explication in english on each step, trying to explain the steps the best that i can do, i didn't know the english at 100% but i do my best, the instructable is beleguage but is alitle more explanable in spanish

[Daniel Design]

jeje this is my first instructable jeje!!! :D

[Weissensteinburg]

Could you at least tell us what the instructable is for in english?

[Daniel Design]

I alredy edited the tutorial, check it out againg. sorry for the inconveniense

[imasuperhero]

I'm not 100% sure, but I think it's for using American plates on a foreign car. Many countries have wider/ shorter plates...

[Vertigo666]

and doing it cheap.
