Ok stopped by a Federali for no front plate I've got one in window. Hes warned me I need to attach to front bumper or 30 quid fine so can someone explain or sow me a pic of where exactly to mount it? I don't want to drill into the wrong place on ej9 facelift.
obviously it has to be drilled but where exactly i dont want to mess this up ha could anyone show me a pic of where they drilled the bracket?
 
You can get tape, or velcro or you could drill your bumper
 
But the tegiwa relocator looks like only bit you could still into to fix it would be the grill? But which bit lol. Just was hoping for a picture of someone else that has fitted it.
 
I've always thought that you would need to fix it to the roof of the mouth on the bumper so if you make a mistake you can't see it and it would be secure from theifs.

You would need to remove the bumper to bolt it on then. Thats what I would do.

Does that make sense?

Don't think the bracket has the depth to fix it to the black grill bars. unless you have a small plate that would fit in there.
 
Yeah thats a good idea actually, i just thought it looked a bit high up when i was trying to see square it up.

It does have a little plate which led me to believe you put the top plate above the third grill up, but i could be wrong. Cant find any guides online and i feel like an idiot haha. no pictures of how its supposed to be fitted anyway.

Well it's custom fit so you can place it where you like, really.

You can mount the plate anywhere on the bracket as well. You don't have to be confined by the mounting holes. :nice:
 
It bolts on the top by were the lower grill sits, once you get it, then it will be self explanorie
 
do you have to remove the bumper? or can get behind if i remove the top grill?
 
It only takes 5 mins to remove the front bumper and will made it so much easier to install. FYI you'd probably need to remove the bumper anyway to get the grill off as the oem grill is screwed to the bumper!
 
very easy to fit. Just drill 2 holes on the upside and to the right of the black bumper grill recess. Then I have used some heavy duty double sided tape to attach my square plate.

i.e. I drilled mine so that it doesn't face square on, but is angled parallel to the curvature of the bumper.

then it looks something like this.....
