Rear License Plate Holder Bracket for BMW + Unique Screws & Wrench New

This replacement bracket is as good as the original Most late model Bimmers are equipped with more or less standard rear mounts, so this should fit almost all of them. A third of the original price can be saved with this product. All the items you need are included, but there are a few This bracket is held in place by two self-contained bolts To fit the two holes in your rear hatch or bumper, you will need to tap screws (not bolts). two holes will be occupied by two plastic BMW expansion nuts, and if they are in good condition then you are done. You will need to replace one or both if they are not in working order, which is not an easy task. Despite the simplicity of mounting it, it only requires screwing in the bracket to your bumper with the provided screws, and one hole on the bracket is oval to facilitate mounting, just like the OEM bracket. There is a problem with the provided screws (M5) - They are too short to mount the license plate and frame. The BMW metric screws are shorter than the standard ones In spite of this, you will be able to mount the plate on its own. You'll need to purchase standard BMW metric machine screws (other than that, a very good replacement kit for the OEM rear bracket is available.

My friend who works as a Detective tells me license plate theft occurs across the country on a daily basis. I had no idea it was such a prevalent crime. Although I knew I had to get locking screws, I was unaware that BMW's license plate mounting system is a piece of over-engineered engineering. The black back is the first thing you need This holder is The front plate bolts on to this mount, and then the rear plates bolt on to In addition, there is no use for the pointy self-defense weapon For attaching the mount to the car and mounting the license plate on the mount, you need to use the stubby machine screws (bolts) that thread into the trunk of the car instead of the usual tapping screws. (I know, complicated. ) This kit contains both the mounting bolts for the back holder and for the license plate that screws into the mount, as well as everything else necessary to assemble it. A total of eight screws were long enough to hold the license plate, plate frame and mount to the car with no issues. There is a lot of value for what you receive. This is a highly recommended book.

As good as the OEM frame which came with the car, the new frame looked. Although the plastic used was of the same standard as the original, the inserted nuts seemed to be of higher quality and more With the frame there are two screws to attach the car to the frame and four screws for attaching the license Even the screws were installed with the help of the included tool. This bracket does not differ from my OEM bracket in terms of quality, and I was able to compare it with the OEM version without any difference.

Simple holding my original rear license plate were too stubborn to remove after many years (even after applying catalytic oil), so I had to replace my 2011 Mini Cooper hardtop's rear license plate holder. I replaced the old plate holder with this one, and it only took me a few minutes to attach my new license plate onto it and to replace the old plate. In addition, the plate holder itself is made of a fairly thin black shiny plastic structure that can easily be broken off with a hammer or chisel, but is approximately the same thickness as a The plastic will need to be tested over time to see if it is durable. There are eight screws included with the plate holder The holder needs two long bolts to hold it in place, four longer bolts to attach the plate to the frame, and four shorter bolts to attach the plate directly to the frame. Please take note of the following Besides the unusual design of the screws used to attach the plate to the plate holder, the plate holder is also attached to the car with a thin pin in the middle - It can only be used with the screwdriver that comes with the plates because of its hexagonal shape. Because of its small size, this tiny special screwdriver should be kept in the glove compartment of your car because it can easily be lost.

There is a bracket system in my MINI Cooper that I bought used. upper screws of the original bracket mount were rusted and wearing into the paint of the car. There was a need for me to change it right away. The new part fits fine and causes no harm to the vehicle. Glad to hear it. A unique screw design will protect your plate from theft (which would already be weird in and of itself). You can use this as a license plate bracket if you need one!.

Be prepared for a subpar product from this developer. My 2017 BMW X1 is a perfect match for this. The reason I am only giving three stars is Hopefully it will be thicker next time. Comparing the picture to the frame itself, the frame itself is extremely thin. It should have a polymer base that is at least 5 mm thick. It is not such an outrageous feature as a screwdriver with a Star bit that they mention as security. Last but not least, the delivery is slow. There is a prime delivery option, but it took more than a week for the item to arrive.

Packaged in a padded envelope with in a padded envelope, the bracket was protected. 10 screws were included in the kit along with the specialty wrench. Screws are used to attach the bracket and to attach the license plate holder there are two screws to attach the bracket directly to the car and four long screws and four short screws to attach it directly to the My BMW 330CI bracket fitted flawlessly and had excellent construction and quality. The dealer wanted $50 for the bracket, so I saved a lot and was able to get it for a much lower price. Thank you for your kind words.

BMW's idea of not mounting the plate directly to the car is a bad one! It's a weak plastic, but so is its weak plastic! In the end, my girlfriend's plate was almost stolen by pulling on both sides and having her silly little grommets pop out of the The Germans were fortunate they never tried to go into There is too much over engineering in their products. It is the same as changing oil dipsticks. I hit the ball but missed the mark!.
