Registration/license plate holders

Very quick question people, please can you let me now where I should go to buy the license plate holders which I need to put the Swiss plates on my British car :-) and is it so easy that even I can do it? I think they are plastic? No idea how much they cost, or what they are called in (Swiss) German? PS I am in Thalwil.

They sell them in the plate office for I think 6 chf.
I believe gas stations etc have them also.

AND when you bring it in for service around here they give you one from that garage with there logo on it...

careful....

all depends which car you have as the holes in the plate holder are different, i have a lexus and only a plate from toyota would line up. i tried the jumbo/migro plate and it was a no go.
I paid about 4chf for it

My Garage gives them for free, you have to be a customer though.
