VW License Plate Bracket - Genuine VW 1KM827211A

Product Information

A License Plate Bracket is a component used to secure a vehicle's license plate to the body of the car. It provides a mounting point for the license plate, ensuring that it is displayed correctly and legally. License plate brackets can be made from various materials, including plastic or metal, and are designed to withstand weather conditions and road vibrations.

• Loose or Wobbly License Plate: If the bracket is damaged or improperly secured, the license plate may become loose, wobbling or rattling while driving. This can lead to potential loss of the plate or failure to display it properly
• Cracks or Breaks in the Bracket: Inspecting the bracket may reveal visible cracks, breaks, or deformities. A damaged bracket may not hold the license plate securely, increasing the risk of it falling off while driving

About Genuine VW

The Volkswagen Group, also known as “VAG”, consists of Volkswagen, Audi, Lamborghini, Bentley, Bugatti, Porsche, Ducati, MAN, Scania, SEAT, and Skoda. The original parts used by VW to build your car are available as replacement parts under the “Genuine VW” brand. Manufactured under the direction of VW, expect excellent quality and a premium price since these parts are available exclusively through the VW Dealership network.

You may not realize this, but the parts that make up your VW are not necessarily manufactured by VW. No cause for concern, as VW designs the part, hires a manufacturer, and ensures its quality to you. In fact, many of these manufacturers have been making parts for VW for decades. In our industry these manufacturers are called OEM (Original Equipment Manufacturers), and these are often brands you recognize, including Lemforder, ZF, Sachs, Bosch, Valeo, Zimmermann, Siemens VDO, Corteco, and more. Don’t be surprised to open that Genuine VW parts box and find an OEM branded part inside, simply with the addition of a VW logo.

Be sure to keep an eye out for OE tags on our product pages to quickly identify parts coming directly from OE manufacturers. That extra bit of insight could save you some serious money while shopping! Refer to our OE Academy for further information regarding the OE/OEM tags throughout the site.
