Just a quick one really, how is everyone number plate (rear one) attached. Bit worried after taking mine off and how it could effect the warranty. I will post pics up later but they have essentially drilled through the outer skin of the tailgate and put a self tapping screw through. Surely breaking the paint is invalidated the corrosion warranty on this panel

your thoughts please

I would say that was definately at the door of the supplying dealer. With the available options open to todays technicians, seems odd that they chose to drill the panel, thus inviting corrosion. If any invalidation of the warranty was to occur, it is the dealer who is responsible. Is there any sign of applied anti corrosion paint ?

Sod all Steve, I can see the bare metal and after spending a
whole afternoon detailing it, it's kinda annoyed me

How second rate, me thinks a call to the dealer to ask them to at least put some rust inhibitor on is the order of the day

. You never know, they may be unaware of the practise, so you could be doing them a favour.
