    License plate tow hook mount

    I have bought several tow hook license plate mounts for my new Mirage because it doesn't have any holes for it in the bumper because it's brand new....l have had to send every single one back because they didn't fit...l know there is another thread on this, but l'm interested if anyone knows of other tow hook plate mounts that fit the Mirage from a different manufacturer...l'm not buying another tow hook kit if it doesn't fit...someone mentioned that a subaru brz plate kit fits But l want someone to confirm before l start looking...Plus l'm tired of having my plate side around in the windshield...

    In my area, many dealers have already tapped holes in the front bumpers for plates. If you shop for cars on line, it appears that many new Mirages have dealer front plates already installed. If a car must have a front plate, I prefer the center of the front bumper look. Cost = 2 screws. Simple!

    I bought this, and it fit perfectly: https://www.ebay.com/itm/FOR-NISSAN-...T/192625326976

    Besides the kit, I needed a wrench to hold the nuts steady behind the plate while I tightened the screws in from the front, and some blue locktite for each screw and the spacer. It's held up nicely so far for almost a year now.
