No Holes Front Bumper License Plate Options?
Are there any no drill options for the front license plate with the 2023 GLS450? There doesn't seem to be any as far as I can find.

i took mine off and uses the screws from it - put them back directly into the bumper thing and it good to go.

Our dealer drilled holes and installed the plate for free. I'm not entirely positive but I think in a state like CA where a front plate is required they have to install it for you if asked.

Does slybrackets work? Many recommend them, never tried them myself though.

I haven't needed to do it on the GLx, as both came with front brackets, but on my BMW, there were dimp;es in the bumper that needed a drill to open up. But behind that were threaded nuts in the bumper. Is that possible that MB does the same?

I use this.... It mounts under bumper and flips up when you need it. No drilling holes visible.
