Description of ๐Ÿš˜ iJDMTOY No Drill Tow Hook License Plate Mounting Bracket for Mercedes W205 C-Class X204 GLK-Class X205 GLC-Class W212 W213 E-Class W166 GLE-Class

Compatible with 2015-up Mercedes W205 C-Class C180 C200 C250 C300 C350 C400 C450 C63 AMG (Sedan and Coupe), 2010-2015 Mercedes X204 GLK250 GLK300 GLK350, 2016-up Mercedes X205 GLC250 GLC300 GLC43 AMG, 2010-up Mercedes W212 W213 E200 E250 E300 E350 E400 E550 E63, 2015-up Mercedes W166 GLE350 GLE500 GLE550. No modification required! The billet aluminum rod screws into the original towbar opening to support the number plate instead of drilling into the bumper. Unlike the "copycats" on the market, our license plate relocation panel is made of black powder coated steel instead of aluminum; much stronger, more durable and better prevents the license plate from spinning due to high-speed driving. Panel also comes with 8 different mounting locations to best keep the license plate from blocking intake vents / lights / parking sensors with angle adjustment for plates to follow the curve of the bumper.

Works great on frames

I've added inverted star washers on either side of the cymbal holder. This apparently increased the stability of the mount so the platter didn't rotate. I've had it for a few months now and it's still there. I installed it on a 2019 GLC 300 4matic and had no problems with front sensors being blocked.

Pros
  • Nice packaging
Cons
  • Crumpled packaging

Not the best solution

I bought this as I didn't want to drill my CLS550. It was quite expensive for what it is but easy to install. The problem is that it blocked the parking aid, so I had to hear about it every time I started the car. Then the license plate tended to get lost and flop. I took it off and drilled a plate holder into the machine.

Pros
  • Pleasant
Cons
  • Can't remember but there was something

LARGE smart car tag holder that avoids drilling holes in the bumper

Install as instructed with lock washers and it works great (car wash can twist/rotate it but easy to straighten by hand). Since I have license plate frames I also added lock washers to the bolts that hold the tag to the frame and since the frame is flush mounted you will need to use pliers to hold the nut in place while using an Allen wrench to Tighten use it's tight.

Pros
  • Durable finish
Cons
  • Protection

Not very good no matter what you do.

So it's been on my car for a few months. Looks good but it's a PITA for maintenance. Yes. Support. I don't care how hard you tighten this thing or use the latch etc. You always end up having to adjust it. It seemed like a good idea at the time, but I think I'll just take it and drill through the front bumper cover so I don't have to mess with that piece of junk. Ready. I do not recommend buying.

Pros
  • Great design
Cons
  • A few little things

The perfect solution for moldings and license plate frames

Everything fits perfectly. The video on their website was fantastic and very helpful, the detailed instructions with pictures are great too. Installation took less than 5 minutes. Even though my ticket was denied, I had to waste my voting time, AND I still had to pay legal fees that were about 5 times as much. I believe this product will be 100% worthy of its 5 star rating over the next few weeks on the Autobahn, this is exactly what the seller's website, instructions and presentation gave meโ€ฆ

Pros
  • Nice little thing
Cons
  • Not bad, but...

Like many other reviewers, I found this unsafe

Poor quality POS product. Like many other reviewers, I found this unsafe. The package label says "Use a rubber washer to prevent the mounting bracket from rotating." No rubber washer included! Another reviewer recommends using glue for installation, which is utter bullshit. Such a product, made for a specific car model, must be independent. There's no reason for me to go to the hardware store to buy more parts to make this thing work. DO NOT BUY THIS!

Pros
  • Absolutely amazing!
Cons
  • Will be added later

Doesn't work on C Class 2019+

This product is pretty good overall, especially for the price. However, I can't give it a good rating because it doesn't fit for 2019+ W205 C class. Once installed, it will block the right front parking sensor from 2019 due to a redesigned bumper and slightly different parking sensor placement in updated models. No matter what plate or plate holder attachment points are used, it blocks the right front sensor. The seller must update the listing to correctly reflect that this item fits andโ€ฆ

Pros
  • Best in its niche
Cons
  • So so

It may not be perfect, but it worked great for me.

I have a C43 AMG and I live in such a state that I absolutely need a front fairing and I refuse to drill holes in the bumper. I bought this holder after reading some bad reviews, I just didn't want to pay $100 for something that felt like a few bucks for tin. I try to reduce vibration and protect my new records. I drive 300 miles a week on the freeway into town so I was worried it might come loose due to bad reviews. I threw a wrench and screwdriver in the glove box in case I needed to performโ€ฆ

Pros
  • Dope ๐Ÿ”ฅ
Cons
  • Expensive
