Re: 95-96 Front license plate mount

kinda not in tune with your request: there should be 2 drilled holes that go into the stock frony bumper cover that used to house the screwes for the plate mount. If their thread is still usaeble, simply put the plate back on without the plate holder using screwes.

PS...did you have your front plate set inside the car near a conrner of the windhsield, or was it missing completely?

Re: 95-96 Front license plate mount

no i had it displayed in the passenger corner of the windshield, but this HP is superprick. he literally ticketed his wife for going 2 MPH over the speed limit. and he is the only one that has given me shit. none of the city cops, sherrifs or other HP have ever questioned it and i have been pulled over a couple of times.

Secondly i need to buy a mounting bracket that holds the plate, my car came out of Utah and never had a front license plate. anyone that could help me out with this i would appreciate it.

Re: 95-96 Front license plate mount

drill holes, your going to have to go that anyway. you dont need a bracket to hold the plate.

Re: 95-96 Front license plate mount

Try going with a custom, side mounted bracket, incase youre ever going to get an FMIC. I took these pics at the DSM meet, check em out:

Re: 95-96 Front license plate mount

Sweet, my plate is also side mounted. If you dont mind putting two holes in the front bumper cover, just get a standard liscence plate mounting kit, or two appropriately sized screws, and screw it right to the bumper cover as an alternative. The only place you are going to find that bracket is the dealer...

I zip-tied mine inside the front mouth part... assuming you don't have a FMIC, it works fine and doesn't mess up the aesthetics of the front too much. I know zip-ties are a little ghetto, but you can't see them unless you get on your hands and knees and look for them.

see this pic, mine's in the front.

Zipties aren't ghetto

I have mine the same as bhop. I don't like putting holes in things. I think it looks kinda nice, anyway. Never had overheating problems, according to the stock gauge

The side bracket idea is savage.

I never could have run low 11s without zipties.
