Angles Mort stickers for France

Can anyone give me a definitive answer as to whether the Angles Mort stickers are a requirement for all vehicles of all nationalities over 3.5 tonnes when driving in urban areas in France. Also, what are the fitting requirements as to height, position and how many are required per vehicle. Many thanks, as ever.

Definitive, I'm not sure, but I'm taking this site as the gospel:

https://www.lemondeducampingcar.fr/courrier/les-camping-cars-poids-lourds-concernes-par-la-nouvelle-obligation-de-signalisation-des-angles-morts/189428

 

So, yes, they are required and the page includes fitting instructions.

 

I believe that the only official stickers carry either a lorry or a coach/bus picture, perhaps an indication that motorhomes were not intended to be included when the legislation was conceived.

On Ebay you'll also find a 3rd. variant depicting a motorhome but whether they satisfy the legal requirements I don't know.

Many thanks, and spooky that the van in the picture is the same as ours!! (lol)
