2025 G Wagen Rear License Plate Bracket

Just an FYI:

The rear license plate bracket is a really bad design, you have to screw into bolts that don’t stay in place. I hade to remove the bracket and duct tape them on and then it worked.

It is a tough design, even for last gen

On my 2024 I had to use one hand for small pliers to hold the nut in place behind the bracket while using the other hand to delicately screw in the bolt... not fun! Ha

Don't know if this is the same problem, but see my thread #18 at https://mbworld.org/forums/g-class-w...s-e21-g63.html

the dealership said it’s a pain to get the license plate on the truck. They had a couple mechanics come out to get the plate on. They left it off and let my detailer install it on my 24. My 21, two mechanics came out and put it on.

Had to do the same exact thing on my 24. I was baffled how annoying it was!
