Yes, all new plates have to comply, even if fitted to older vehicles, but of course there is no way of knowing when you fitted the plates!
Its a bit like the SVA rules for post 98 cars being so different, if you modify a 1990 car now, how does anyone know it was done before or after 98 for certain? Where as any car newer than 98, it MUST have been done more recently by default.
