Hey Smith, you get a "warning " from the poe-poe, like i did 2weeks ago. I ended up using some flatstock here at the pad, bending up to brackets, and mounting it up...I figured also, the dealership would be outrageuous....BTW, good look'n out Rick

OK, Brian, start looking in the mail in a couple days. lol

The screws that holds the license plate are on the bracket, but I don't have the plastic clips that hold the bracket to the bumper. I think they were plastic clips when I took it off. I'm sure you can find what it will need.

I broke mine hitting something or another, I just shot two self tapping screws into the bumper to hold the plate on.
