INSTALLING FRONT LICENSE
PLATE WITHOUT GROMMETS

Use the following steps to mount the front license
plate without grommets:

1. Make a shallow hole in each plastic finisher

at the location mark (small dimple) using a
0.31 in (8 mm) drill. To avoid damaging the
threads behind the finisher, apply only light
pressure to the drill.

2. Mount the license plate bracket using two

8 mm slotted hex head screws.
