If you mount items with sticky stuff

Post by Roboframer »

.... don't feel too bad - Mercedes do too!

I found my rear number plate on the floor today, this is how it was fixed on ...

It was very warm and our drive is a suntrap, but still!

It will be screwed on tomorrow, by the dealer and like the front one is, because it is slightly curved. I was going to do it but if it is to match the front one with a screw at each corner it will need some drilling that I don't wannna do - plus they colour match the screw caps, blue on the left for the Eu bit.

Mercedes - who'd've thunk, eh?

In Merc's defence, it is archival-quality tape they use.

That's how mine was held on before it got nicked, bought a new one online, and it came with all the fitting (including the sticky pads) screws and the different coloured screw caps, so it's stuck and screwed :clap:

The glass in one of my back doors is held in with heavy-duty carpet tape. :giggle:
