Front license plate mount - what do you use?

[PaulaJP]

I live in A state where a front license plate is required. Can anyone share what they use?

This is a pretty common topic on just about any automotive forum. There's a lot of good options out there. Most folks here seem to swear by the Sto'n'sho solution. I personally use Rho-Plate but this was trickier to adjust so it wouldn't trigger the parking sensors (it still does from time to time, particularly if the plate is wet.) A quick search of the forum will find you a bunch of other options..

I use No Plate. It’s inexpensive, simple to install, and you can’t even tell the plate is there.

It's a dealer add-on I insisted on.

Agree Sto-n-Sho is the way to go. Very simple to install

Can someone with the sto-n-sho on their Taycan please share a photo of how it looks mounted?

I’ve been driving my new Taycan 4S in NYC with no front plate for two months, often right next to or behind cop cars, with no stops so far. Now that I’m writing this, though, I’m sure the next time I drive I’ll get busted. My strategy is to just pay the fine if I have to and hope it doesn’t happen that often. No “points” come along with a ticket for not having a front license plate, which for me makes the risk more worth it.

I know this is a question for the US states.

Just to let you know, here it is quite simple!

They just use some pop rivets to fix the front and rear plates. When a car is sold and the new owner registers the car with his address etc. the dealer just drills a hole through the new plate and bumper or rear trunk lid to fix the plate.

I usually just keep the plate in the car until at least the first time I get pulled over for it. Never gotten pulled over for it in WI. Now luckily with my Taycan I live somewhere where it's not required.

I use Carbonio and I really like the way it looks centered to the car, but also like nothing is there when I leave the plate out.

Here it's a photo of my old Taycan4S with the same support. And then one without the plate.

This looks great! I don't see a Taycan plate mount on their website, did you use the 911 mount, or another model?

They had a Taycan for some time and removed, not sure why. But if you message them, they will confirm. I saw somewhere in there site that some cars aren't listed, but they have, so reach out if you don't see one.

In NYC, I've only been ticketed when parked. Typically on street cleaning days or at meters.
