RE: license plate bracket


Yep, both of my license plate brackets (and 6mm mounting holes) are on each
apron under the hatches.  The brackets (which resembles a '-') are centered
roughly vertically on each apron, so I either had to make two brackets per
plate, one to go between the right side holes on the plate, and one for the
left side holes (so the bracket would resemble an 'H'), or just drill holes
into my license plate to fit them on the original bracket.  I chose the
latter, and I got lucky, as the holes I needed to drill missed all of the
letters on my plates.  I think it looks pretty good, too.  The bracket is
totally hidden behind the plate.

Good Luck,
Freddie Lochner
