R50/53 R50 rear license plate mount
R50 rear license plate mount
Anyone know where I can get one? It seems the mounts have "internal" nuts to thread into. My upper right one just spins and spins when attempting to remove the bolt holding the plate on. Was able to finally get it off, but would like to replace the mount with something new. Will any "universal mounts" work on a generation 1 R50?
Thanks!

You can get a new mount and when you install the new screws put a little anti-seize on them a bit. Then when you take it off again the nut will not seize then spin.
If you have an old one you can sometimes get it with a very long needle noise pliers and hold the square nut. They undo the screw.
Some of the aftermarket ones I have seen would have to match the holes perfect and then no bang up against the trunk.
