Front number plate fallen off

[novemberRomeo]

this fell off earlier whilst washing the car. It looks like I should be able to just reattach the plate to the screw but I can’t get the screw to fit in the hole.

Does anyone have any instructions for how to fix this please?

You need to first remove the plate itself from the black plastic holder by pulling the bottom lip on both sides (Where it says Tesla).
This will allow to remove the metal number plate. Then you will see the back of the plate holder where most likely a screw has fallen off.
Just align it back with the mounting plate on the bumper, fit a new screw, put the numberplate back on, and the lip, and you'll be good to go

Thanks - I'll give that a try!

Sorry for being dim, but do you mean where it says Tesla in the middle of the number plate? In which case, what do you mean by both sides?
I can't see Tesla written anywhere else on the plates.

sorry - the markings may not be there on yours. I meant the plastic lip normally located at the bottom of your plate. That what hold your plate to the mount. You can lift it slightly from the sides and it will come off, allowing you to remove it by sliding it downwards

The earlier plate holders had “Tesla” embossed at the bottom. Your backplate is certainly different to mine.
there should be some obvious joins on the plate holder that will give a clue where the metal plate slides out.

There are a few different designs but all essentially the same where you remove the bottom part of the frame to allow the plate to slide out which allows you access to the mounting screws.

bin it and get a stick on one.

Thanks everyone - managed to unclip the bottom, slide it out, then screw it back on. All good.
16 hours later and Tesla Service Request hasn't even got back to me!
