Car Front Bumper Tow Hole Adapter License Plate Mounting Bracket


This license plate tow hook mounting bracket uses the tow hole to screw in the mounting stick and plate to the side of your bumper without having to drill or modify your bumper in any way. This license plate tow hook mounting adapter is available for a ton of cars, including BMW, Mercedes Benz, Audi, Lexus, Toyota, Scion, Subaru, Nissan, and more. If you don't see a set available for your car, you just need to check your bumper to see if there's a tow hole. If there is, you can bet that there will be one available soon.

Installation is very easy and will take no more than a few minutes. You will need to pop off the tow hole cover. This removal varies by car so you could press the corner of the tow hole cover with your finger or you may need a pry tool to remove it. Screw in the mounting stick clockwise until the threading catches on (righty tighty, lefty loosey) and use the screw to mount the plate. Then you will need to grab some of the nuts and bolts included and mount your license plate. Secure the entire assembly with a hex tool so it makes it absolutely difficult for anyone to steal.

Mercedes Benz Internal Code Lineup Revealed

Mercedes-Benz has quite the complicated internal code lineup, with a puzzling combination of letters and numbers to symbolize every vehicle. It started out as a simple letter and number combination, but the introduction of newer models created a new list of internal code lineups. The letter and number combination used to correspond to the engine displacement, but that's not always the case today. This is a quick guide on what all of the letters and numbers mean.

A-Class:
This is the smallest car in the Mercedes brand lineup that's appropriately given the first name of the alphabet. The code name is W176, with "W" as a four/five door passenger car.
