Numberplate screws

[Mark Hewitt]

Hello! First post here had my MG4 SE for about a week!

Question: Are there numberplate holes drilled into the tailgate as standard? Reason being is I want to get one of the reversing cameras that mount to the rear numberplate, but the as I have got it from the dealer has the plate stuck on. So if I pulled it off (somehow) would it reveal screwholes underneath that I could use to either drill and refit the existing plate, or get a new one?

Yes there are pre drilled holes, pretty big tbh

Perfect! Thanks!

If you work out what size they are let me know, mine are metal so would rather change them to black as the fit in with the black letter/numbers of reg ?

Thanks for that, got it off!

To answer your question I got some 25mm number plate fixing screws and they fit perfectly.

Annoying holes at the front are not like that! Much smaller.

You can get the threaded plastic fixings from halfords / the range for £2-£3 depending on colour / store - all standard size on the rear - e.g. https://www.therange.co.uk/diy/moto...ber-plate-fixings/?position=2&s=148449#148449
