Hey everyone. I recently came across a EuroCompulsion license plate frame and decided to do a step by step guide while installing it.
This is a fairly basic install with minimal tools needed. Ok lets start.
Tools:
Step 1:
Make sure your ratchet is set to lefty loosey.
Step 2:
Place ratchet on the end of the left screw.
Step 3:
Begin to turn to the left. This will start to loosen the screw.
Step 4:
Once the screw is out grab it with your fingers and remove it from the frame.
Step 5:
Place the screw somewhere you won't lose it. I find the top of the bumper to be ideal for this.
Step 6:
Repeat steps 2 through 5 to the right screw.
Step 7:
Now here's where the fun begins! Remove the old plate and frame from the car and separate the license plate from the old frame.
Step 8:
Pick up the new license plate frame.
Step 9:
Turn it over.
Step 10:
Place your license plate in the new license plate frame making sure to line up the mounting holes.
Step 11:
Pro tip: You can place a screw through the hole to keep it aligned as you prepare to re-mount your plate.
Step 12:
Before you start installing the new frame make sure your ratchet is set to righty tighty.
Step 13:
By reversing steps 5 through 2 you should be able to re-install the mounting screw. Be careful not to over-tighten.
Step 14:
When starting the right side you can use your fingers to get the screw started.
Step 15:
Now you can stand back and admire your work. Job well done!
This is a simple visual mod that is sure to impress. I already love the new look!
Thanks for reading!
