Description

My E39 Touring was missing one of the clips to hold in the plate bracket (plinth). The previous owner had used silicone to hold the panel on. Unable to live with this I contacted the dealership - who were unable to find the part in their system. Doubting their competence I checked realoem myself and actually couldn't find a part number. So I turned to Fusion360 and whipped these up. I've never designed anything before so please bear with me. I have made two revisions of this thing. (bmw_plate_plinthe_v3) The first is a copy of the original - fits snug and locks nicely. - It may be a good idea to use a bit of RTV or Butyl Rubber around the hole to keep water out! (Nut.stl /Thread.stl) The second is a threaded option. Allowing you to fit an M8x1.25 nut on the back. This option was created for people who may have corrosion around the hole thus making it too big for the snap in option. Printed these on my CR-10S w/ 99% concentric infill 5 walls and 0.12 layer height @ 35mm/s Hopefully they can be of use to someone else too. Cheers. Apparently fits these models too!
