Are there no holes for screws under the plate like the OEM one?

I see the holes but you need 4 x push fit clips to secure the plate holder in place but as that's an aftermarket no plate holder it will be a problem which is why I screwed mine down with self tap screws :signLOL:

yes ive only put 2 of the screws from the oem as the holes in surround are all awkward sizes so only got 2 screws in... annoying though as it will slide up and down slightly lol....

I put 1 in each corner and 2 about a quarter in each side top and bottom of that makes sense so the holder is firmly secured and sits flush so no poking out either corners of middle  :happy2:
