Exclamation How do Install the front plate holder from AB

Ordered the front plate mount from Atlantic British. But I have no idea where it is made to go and how to install it. All it has is the metal plate, do i need to go buy hardware.

So then i'm assuming the plastic center BUMPER PLINTH comes off and stays off.

Hey, also. I bought some license plate screws at the auto store, but of course, they are too big. What screws do i need. Do we know a size? that i can take to someone and get them.

No, the holder attaches to the plinth. It should have 4 holes in the front. 2 to clear the plate screws and 2 for the tabs to slide up into. The bottom of the plinth has a hole to screw the bottom fastner into.

Mount the license plate to the holder and then attach it to the plinth. and yes, I just happened to have a plinth right next to me when I read this. I had to take mine off because I have a standard size and it ouldn't work with the brush guard I got.
