Speed Bump Fitting Guide & Installation

When installing our speed bumps, it is important to fit them correctly.  This simple guide aims to outline the speed bump fitting process (or installation) to install our speed bumps correctly.

This guide assumes that you are installing a speed bump using one of our Speed Bump Kits.

Things you will require:
