Number Plate Spacers

[Mr Badger]

I'm fitting new plates to a Mercedes boot, one of the number plate spacers, if that's the correct term, is missing and another is worn.
Can you buy replacements and how do they fit. Thanks

I just used 6mm double sided adhesive plate pads , looked much neater than screw heads on the plate.

I doubt anything would fit in that lower hole. It looks well butchered.
Re the part ask at a dealer, I think its a number plate mount.

I'm pretty sure they are part of the whole panel and are fitted during manufacture.
I would doubt they are available separately.
You could repair it using a rivnut and 6mm thick washer though personally I prefer sticky pads to mount my plates as they look far neater.

Whilst on the subject of sticky pads, do not waste time and money with cheap ones and follow the instructions.
3M are good

ask me how I know!
