Front plate mount

[DennisLee]

My dealer is supplying me with a front mount for my car. Oregon doesn`t mess around if you don`t have one as we get a LOT of drugs running through our town on I-5 highway.
ANY car that looks odd gets stopped.
So, I will hope the factory mount works for me as well as for you.
Any thing difficult about the install?
Thanks

The dealer should install it. Part of the the PDI.

My dealer suggested the same - and I took their advice - much better  :) than the holes they were drilling into another persons 500!

Please post a picture of the factory mount.  I'd like to see what it looks like.

That doesn't look bad at all and is a similar setup to what they do in Europe anyway so I think it works.

I would recommend mounting the OE mount in the OE position.  mounting anything in the lower eggcrate grille area would only block off airflow.  during hot weather, this could be a potential problem, leading to overheating.

Many of you now have your cars and I am sure have decided how to mount the front plate. I was given a bracket by my dealer but the instructions don't seem to be for a 500.....

I know the zip ties are a solution, but do any of you havea different remedy for the mount. Like many
of you, I don't want to drill holes in my front bumper.

Any help and/or photos would really be appreciated.

Hey all,

I live in GA where we don't have front plates.  I have the front plate mount in the bag.  If anyone wants it, I'll ship it to you.  Probably will  cost $3 or $4 to ship.   I won't use it so rather than let it take up space in my garage, someone should use it.

Post a pic of your car w/o a front plate mount and give me some contact info and it is yours!

Chris,
I'd like to have the mount if it hasn't been spoken for.  I'll send you my contact mailing address.

A few pictures, out in the rain this evening:
I'll trim the foam rubber pad so it doesn't look so tacky from up close.

   

And from further back, yesterday:

This looks awesome, Alvon!  I received my license plates recently and still haven't found a way to put them on yet.  So I just keep my sticker on the windshield and keep pretending it's a brand new car....lol

Here is an easy way to mount the plate without drilling for about $5.
