I have no idea how this could happen, and it's probably a wank.
I suppose it might be a case of direct British support for Mexico in their war of independence - perhaps if Ferdinand tried to neutralise Spain after the French had been ejected in 1813, which I have read but I'm not sure how accurate it is, and Britain turned avowedly against Spain in the New World rather than trying to balance interests.
America, I don't think, wouldn't see its interests served in assisting the independence of such a powerful Mexico, even at this early stage.
But anyway. Never mind how. What if Mexico becomes independent holding all the territory of the former Viceroyalty of New Spain (see map below, all areas marked in red) and holds on to all of it for at least the next 50 years (i.e. to about 1860/70) ?
