Thread: Temporary Tag Fail

    Default Temporary Tag Fail

    I guess it's not so "temporary" now...



    In case you can't quite make it out, the paper tag is secured to the trunk with two giant sheet metal screws.

    At least they took the time to put it on straight and level.

    PS
    It's a Saturn...little caulking and you'll never see it!

    can't be. I guess it is magnetic and the screws hold on the magnets.
    M3 is always the answer.

    I had seen one applied in this very fashion once before, and thought WTF? I believe they just slip on the lip of the panel and use magnets to secure the top, but never got close to tell. I would hope that is the case anyways...
    I use to worry about money; but then realized I don't HAVE anything to worry about.

    There's a large magnet back there they didn't screw into the trunk lid. And the newer Saturns (pretty much anything made after the VUE and ION series) has metal body panels.
