111 License plate bracket?

[perry]

Anyone know where to get an inexpensive license plate bracket for the 111 Coupes/Cabs? On every 111 that I have seen except for one, the license plate is drilled to match the holes in either the fuel door or the front bumper.

Makes it hard to use a license plate frame. On one car that had a license plate frame that I saw at a shop, the owner had used short bolts w/nuts to attach the frame to the license plate, then drilled holes in the plate to attach to the fuel door. there's got to be an easier way.

Any bracket used on these cars for the USA license plate was fabricated by someone. Never supplied by MB.

The only cars that I have seen this bracket on were from hatch and sons. here's a link to their website and a picture of a car they have for sale where you can see this bracket. i guess i could always call them and see if i could buy one, i was hoping for a less expensive solution.
