Install the license plate with the four included button head screws.ĥ. This bolt needs to be snug to prevent the plate from coming loose or rotating, almost as tight as you can get it with a standard socket wrench.Ĥ. If your car uses a left hand threaded tow stud, you will want to use an open ended wrench on the tow stud to keep it tight while you torque down the plate bolt. Hold the plate in the desired position while you tighten the plate bolt with a 15mm socket. We recommend keeping your fingers behind the plate at all times so that it can’t touch the bumper. Use caution during this process so that you do not scratch the bumper. To adjust the tab, screw the plate bolt in a few turns and use the leverage of the vehicle and the stud bend it slightly. On some vehicles, the back plate will touch the bumper if you install it without adjusting the angle of the mounting tab first.
Hold the back plate up to the stud with the holes lined up. Check for clearance, and install the back plate. The studs are aluminum which is much softer than the material in the towing eye receiver, so they won’t damage your car.ģ. We intentionally machine these slightly oversized, so if it feels like it doesn’t want to go in just get a socket on the end of it and drive it in.
Install the tow stud into the towing eye receiver. Take the cover completely off, and keep it in a safe place.Ģ. Using your finger, or a plastic prying tool, remove the towing eye cover on the front bumper.
