Hey guys,

Just finished up making Australian License plate holder prototypes, and was curious to know about the license plate mounting for people in other countries. Does anyone have a diagram or can help me with the locating holes for the numberplate mounts?

Here is how we mounted the AU plates:

Also I have noticed that someone said USA doesn't need license plates on the front at all? is this a state by state rule? As such, how do they mount the factory plate holder for your guys? Over here its two giant gaping rectangular holes on each side of the bar, where they slide a spring clamp that has a nut on the back. One for each side of the plate mount.

Anyways, any help would be appreciated, as I don't have access to USA plates and I am unsure if our design would be applicable for anywhere aside from Australia.

Based on how we did ours, maybe you can advise if this is possible or not on USA plates?
