The types and sizes of these screws also vary depending on the car brand or model. Vehicles fitted with threaded metal holes use a different type of plate screw. These are self-tapping screws that can fit most vehicles equipped with nylon or plastic screw retainers. The standard license plate screw size for most car brands is 1/4-14-3/4 inch. What license plate screw size will fit your vehicle? If you need to replace a missing or worn-out license plate screw, it is important to know what size will fit your car or truck.
I have used their adaptor kits on both my BMW and Mercedes and their stuff is of the highest quality.Disclosure: We may get commissions for purchases made through links in this post. They do not currently make anything for the Prius but since they supply kits for the Yaris it should be no problem for them to make a kit for the Prius if there is enough demand for such an item. The large metal plate is there so you can mount the license on the plate instead of directly on the bracket and adjust where you want the top edge of the plate to be relative to the top of the mounting stud on the tow hook socket. The plate attachment screws are button head socket cap screws for a nice clean look. The mounting hardware utilizes nylock nuts or lock washers which will not loosen from vibration. All parts are made from Stainless Steel to ensure no rust. Instead, it utilizes a custom machined stud that screws into the towhook receptacle. The 'NO HOLES' License Plate Bracket (NHLPB) does not require you to drill into your front bumper.
On my BMW I used one of these sets to avoid drilling my bumper cover: Mercedes dealers have started putting the brackets on all new cars since they were sued by an owner that got a fix-it ticket for a missing front plate back in 2007. Most BMW dealers will leave the bumper cover untouched unless you request the bracket to be installed. The reason it is slightly larger than the older bracket is because it is designed to also fit the Japanese plates which are metric in size and slightly larger than the std USA size.īMW has been using the one size fits all for at least eight years on their front plates. Toyota cheaped out with the newer bracket.
