[QUOTE="Kapy, post: 12494201, member: 144046"] Hey San, Sorry for the delay, been on business trip. I basically went down to the local Auto Zone. In the section of License Plate frames they have a license fastener kit. It contains machined threaded inserts with screws as well the plastic square type inserts that snap into a correctly drilled hole and can recieve a coarse threaded screw that they also provide with a hex head. So the cool thing is nobody will steal your plate either because the odds of them having a hex key are unlikely. Anyway I used the plastic square type inserts. Basically drilled a whole roughly a tad smaller than the measurement of the insert and then pushed right in. The depth of the GT500's license plate bumper area is only about a quarter of an inch. It works perfectly. Sure beats just tapping into the plastic and good luck finding a a screw bigger than a quarter inch once the plastic is stripped out. So that's why I decided to put the inserts in. Hope this helps.
