Front registration plate hanger

Post by rolesyboy »

My front registration plate hanger on my Mk 1 flaps and rattles around. Fixed on each side to the front apron by an M10 bolt. Is there a better way of doing this? Trivial I know but I am sure there are people out there who have found the same problem and a good solution. (Asking questions like this I think I might have started to miss the point of what a Mini is all about! :D )

Big "Penny" washers have always worked OK for me.
