Hi, folks! I just bought a used Frontier, and being in Tennessee where is there is no front tag required, there is no mounting bracket on the front. eBay, OEM bracket. Problem solved! Almost...

No instructions, just a set of plastic anchors, bolts and nuts, and 2 retaining clips that make no sense. I can tell where to place it based on the curvature of the bracket, and see the alignment with 2 dimples on the plastic bumper cover. Now what?

Drill thru to install the plastic anchors? I can't reach behind to feel how the nuts and bolts would attach. My logical mind says to just use heavy self tap screws directly into the plastic bumper cover. Thoughts?

It's only for a decorative vanity plate, but I want my Harley on my Nissan! :cool:

Imma let you in on a little secret, those things usually don't come with instructions. You are correct, just screw it in place.
