Mercedes license plate installation method is: 1. First place the license plate buckle on the license plate frame; 2. Add a rubber pad or stick several layers of double-sided tape behind the license plate, the main purpose is to prevent the license plate from colliding with the bumper and making noise while driving; 3. The self-tapping screw passes through the anti-theft cap, the license plate frame, the license plate (shock-absorbing rubber pad), and the expansion plug of the bumper, then directly tighten it; 4. After tightening the two self-tapping screws above, cover the cap of the anti-theft cap. Mercedes is a German automobile brand known for luxury and high performance, headquartered in Stuttgart, Germany, and is one of the members of Daimler AG.

I remember the last time I helped a friend install a Mercedes license plate, it was quite chaotic at first. The key is not to rush into it. There are pre-drilled screw holes on both the front and rear bumpers, so just align the plate and place it on. Prepare a small Phillips screwdriver, and the screws and nuts included in the license plate kit will fit perfectly. When tightening the screws, use a gentle touch to avoid scratching the car's paint. I used an old towel as padding, which made it much safer. After installation, remember to shake it to check for stability—you don’t want it rattling while driving over bumps. If the new car comes with a dedicated bracket, just follow the instructions. Otherwise, checking online tutorials is quite convenient. Once done, I took photos to compare with local traffic regulations—the plate mustn’t be tilted or block any lights to avoid fines. Overall, it took about 20 minutes. With careful attention, you’ll be ready to hit the road with peace of mind.
