Yeah, W123. I'll take another look, but the holes appeared to be
blind. Maybe they aren't supposed to be, though. My car was put
headfirst in a ditch, at some point, and the air dam/valence area under
the bumper was pushed upwards in places.
You DO have to reach up blind at the back of the bumper with the
nuts. I used a pair of curved hemostats to hold the nut while I pushed
the bolt through from the front.
David,
When I had that pblm (with a 280 SLC), I went to the (St)ealership, and
bought the requisite bracket (it wasn't cheap, IIRC). That is what is
attached to the holes on the car. The license plate then screws into that

This has one of the best Freudian slip typos I've ever seen:
