I have to use a front license plate in Illinois so I bought the Porshe plate holder/mount and the two parts that go behind the mount and pop into the front bumper cover. One of them just will not stay attached it keeps popping out. Any suggestions? I thought maybe I could put a small bolt and nut on but can't figure out how to get to back of bumper cover. Any Ideas?

I just finished the job myself. I ordered the parts from Pelican Parts. If your parts are the same as mine 996-701-801-00 also 996-701-802-00 these are the two parts that go behind the holder/mount and the mount is part #996-701-107-00. All you need to do is use a long enough self tapping tapered head screw that will go through the plate holder/mount and the parts that attatches to the bumper. Once you tighten those screws your bracket and mounts should be tight. :D

I too live in Illinois. Hate the front plate law. I have never used the front plate yet. Got my first warning ticket last year. Fingers crossed. Not a DD. I will consider State Laws regarding the front plate in the coming years, when I select my retirement State!
