2024 TRD SPORT LICENSE PLATE MOUNTING

[Ltrain]

44,000 dollar truck you'd think a proper license plate bracket would be installed at factory?

You mean the front? I took that thing off and just put the self tappers back in. What's the issue?

Mine had 2 holes in front with 2 lag screws put on by the dealer I guess so they could display their dealer plates. Seems a crude way of mounting. I put my own plates on with the plastic frame and the holes strip out very easy in plastic bumper cover or whatever you call where you mount the plate.

Just use a slightly larger screw or a different thread pattern if they're stripped. I used some of the hardware from my ark flaps as my rear plate mounting holes we stripped out from the dealer

Fortunately my state “ditched” the front plate before I bought my 2024 Sport so I have a clean unobscured front plastic bumper.

There is a part for the front plate to mount to its just not installed by default in places that dont need it. #75101-AK010.

Tossed the front plate under the passenger side floor matt when I installed the Backwoods offroad high clearance front bumper .
This way I have it in case I get pulled over. It's one of many little things cop's can use to pull you over in Washington.

Idk if they even really care in WA. I never put the front plate on my Ioniq5 and had it for 2 years with no issues. Got pulled over speeding when I absolutely pinned it to get out of an HOV lane to avoid that $3 fee (that turned into $300) and passed a cop at the perfect time Mr patrol man was not in a good mood and even he didn't notice
