Default Ebay license plate relocator?

Anyone used one? I don't really wanna pay 50 bucks for the password:jdm one if I don't have to. I wish I lived in a state where they weren't required but I just got pulled over for the first time after a year of no plate. (My friend has been pulled over twice in his WRX! HAHA! We had a bet.)

I am wanting to avoid the ticket.

I know, you get what you pay for but I just wanna know if it works.

yeah. Does it mount to the stock license plate mounts in the bumper? I'd rather not bolt it to the bumper... They look pretty similar. I guess I will be the guinea pig who forks the 20 bucks to find out.

Yeah i don't like the idea of drilling into my bumper neither.
Since you're going that route.. let me know.
I'll have to be putting Illinois plates on my car here soon. I'm actually suppose to have them on my car already since i've been here longer then 1 month but I don't wanna. So i gotta be careful.

Well I ordered it. I will mount it up and let you know and get some pictures too...

20 bucks is a pretty good price... Shipped.


The only reason I miss Kansas was A. no front plates B. Lots of hot chicks that are oddly dating which trash farms boys

I don't miss the white trash farm boys... Just the fact that there were a lot of hot chicks (where I lived... Manhattan) and they seem to be starving for someone that doesn't drive a truck and wear Carhart.

Trust me, other than that... Kansas sucked.

Minnesota also requires the front license plate as well so I bought one, works fine. I had to drill wholes in my bumper to mount it up and it's almost been 1 years since I mounted it on.

i bought one off ebay for 25 bucks shipping included. the next day my friend went to home depot and made one that looked cleaner for like 2 bucks. he just bought two 2 inch long 1 inch wide thin metal sheets bent it 90 degrees drilled holes, and mounted it on each side of the license plate.

I don't like how the honda mount touches the bumper. I just got a new bumper on my car and my old one had grooves worn into the paint where it touched.

That "re-locater" covers the left fog light as well.
