    What did you do for mounting the rear licenses plate (US) ?
    Just 4 4 screws to onto the plate? Any gasket between plate and mount? And/or did you use a small frame?
    I have an all black S5.

    I bought a couple thin rubber spacers at the hardware store because there was a gap between the plate and the mount with the frame that I bought.

    I tossed the frame, put some 3M tape (the kind that is sticky on one side only) on the back of the license plate itself, then mounted the plate straight to the car with the 2 frame holes (had to drill the plate).

    ok. I will go with a simple black ABS slim line frame.

    I seem to have difficultly tightening the screws. I removed the dealer frame and put back the plate. What is the proper screw?
