How difficult is installation?

Installation is straightforward for anyone comfortable with basic hand tools: remove the damaged bracket and secure the Dorman piece using the original fasteners and mounting points.

What should I check after installing the bracket?

After installation, verify the license plate sits level and the fasteners are secure to prevent rattling or loss.

Periodically check the bracket and screws for corrosion or loosening, especially after winter or off-road use.

• Ensure plate is flush, level, and visible per local requirements.
• Retighten fasteners after initial road use and during regular maintenance.
• Watch for corrosion; replace hardware if signs of wear appear.
