In my neck of the woods, decal plates are illegal since they don't reflect the gendarmes lidar beams.....
either jury rig a central holder or buy the moweraxle or similar tow hook attachment....driving around with your deadly plate on the dash is an awful accident waiting to happen....take this from an ex emergency doctor......

I bought one of those. Edgy is right - that will scrape right off on the first driveway you enter.

The problem is finding a solid mounting spot. Everything underneath the front of the car is plastic.

The front tow hook is VERY solid. Lol

I make a plate mount which attaches to the tow hook inlet .
No holes to drill ,it installs/removes in a few minutes and all materials are
rustproof construction .

It sells for $ 37.50 ( including shipping in US )

If you are interested in one, send me an e-mail
