Need some ideas for mounting 2 sided substrate between 2 PVC posts

Well, since you're profile says you're from the united states, I have no idea of the weather conditions, so it would really help to know. Also, it would be good to know what the substrate is, as that can have a real effect on how to mount it.

If you want a clean look....... think about at least 3/4" pvc.... if not 1". Make it 4" longer and rout your posts and slide the sign inside of the routed areas and drive 2 or 3 screws through the post, sign and almost out the other side, just not quite. Make a plug for the screws. 1/4" anything will not work. Too long of a span, especially for the little ones.
I like that idea but the panels need to be removable.

I like that idea but the panels need to be removable.

I imagine, just the bottom two panels need to be removable, so just put a base piece into the posts and use overlays and screw them fast to your base piece. I've got signs like that up all over our area.

I'd weld or glue .090" or .125" aluminum to a mitered square tube frame. Then let my guys load it face down so I have to travel to site to fix graphics/touch up, this way I can also find the pile of aluminum shavings where they trimmed the legs to save time digging a little deeper and tried to hide it.
If my arms run out of steam while digging, cutting the posts is always a viable option.
