Use the following steps to mount the front license

plate:

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.
