Rear Numberplate

[mrred]

Hi All, I thought the numberplate was just screwed in, how wrong I was ! just tried some of the screw as they are rusty and the heads snapped off, then the plate cam off and realise it looks like there are fixed from behind !!!!!

Anyone got a how to for this please?????? Looks like I have to take all the internal trim off?? If so, how, cos experience on another merc was I could not pull it off as I thought it would break !!!

Thanks

Can you use double sided tape?

Some people just put a self tapper in each corner but it looks so naff.
