How well does it mount to a license plate holder already on vehicle (I have a 1993 Honda Accord EX with a plate holder on front bumper of car)?

It arrived new with no holes for mounting. Maybe in Japan they don't attach the plates the same as we do in the USA. So, that said, I just drilled my own holes to comply (line up) with the ones on the front bumper of my Subaru. Fits perfect and it rocks the appearance of the front of the car.

I use on a Honda accord. But I will tell you that if like it if the tabs that you slide into the window slot could be a little longer. They can slip out. But the will protect well against dirt & mud while they stay in.

Not really. These are a bolt and nut set used on plate frames without a threaded backing. Your Honda has 2 or 4 threaded bolt receptacles already in the plate holder or trunk lid. These bolts are too long and will stick out and your plate will just hang and not be snug to the car or plate holder.

can't speak about a Honda Fit but they are easy to mount. it's almost like a c-clamp. A movable underside of the mirror goes to the underside of the top of your mirror and then you tighten up a screw which closes the clamp to your mirror. the screw does not touch your car in any way. you may end up with 2 indentations from either side of the bottom of the mirror itself. I've had mine on my Prius for a year now with no mishaps and have taken it through multiple car washes too.

I own a 2009 Clubman. It fits correctly, I use it on the back of the car so that I can use a bike rack mounted in the center of the bumper.The bracket attaches to a post which screws into a towing access hole. It will fit all of these. But will the angle be correct? The bracket is angled so that the license plate will be flush with the bumper surface. If it is not, and you really need it to sit flush with the surface, then you can bend the bracked slightly, but it will take a strong vise and tools to do so.

Yes, it will mount, assuming you can find the two mounting holes that must be there (for states w/ 2 tags) To further stiffen, you might consider a mount frame (available form any auto store) tho this is not necessary.

I mounted mine to the license plate on my SUV. I put a piece of metal behind the plate and drilled holes through it where the license plate mounts. They I drilled a hole through the center with the license plate bolted to the metal to hold in place temporarily. I then mounted the camera through the center hole I drilled and took off the bolts holding the metal to the license plate and then mounted them where they normally go. It worked great. The only problem I had was picking up road spray sometimes. It was a good place for me to watch my hitch connection for hooking up.

I added it to 09 Forester. The bumper had two small points marked into it but no holes had been drilled. The screws that are part of the kit are self-tapping and screwed right into the marked locations. This holder is necessary if you live in a state with a requirement for a front licence plate - i.e. TX

It is not that deep. In terms of where the license plate is. The whole thing is from the bumper out is about 2 inches maybe a little less. The bottom part of the holder is a little thicker because it curves under the bumper a little kinda like it wraps around the bumper. It is a real nice license plate holder and seems to match with the contours of the car. I am pleased with the product. Hopefully I answered your question. If need more info I will give you whatever I can.

Well to take this someone would have to first remove your license plate which I believe requires a hex wrench. No that's not right, I ordered the wrong one the first time which came with a short bolt for a different car. (It didn't even reach the thread to screw in) I reordered the correct one and now it's secure. Good luck!

It wont mount properly, the clips line up but the hooks on the back of the cup holder are too high up so the swing out cup holder wont be able to open/close. I wish I knew before i purchased it.

I don't know, but my Jeep Patriot had no front bumper license plate holder. I just used the included self-tapping screws and screwed directly into my bumper. Its never budged, even in my wreck.

Since the answer depends on how much surface area there is at the front bumper underneath to mount it depends. First if you have an area of about 12 inches from front to back starting just under the bumper to back one foot yes. If not if you can mount some cross bracket just to hold the license plate bracket Yes again. It most depends on what you are willing to do to make it work. This one is designed for the Corvette. I own a Prius and it fit perfectly. On good thing with a truck is that it sits higher. If you want to use the motorized version to push a button to display the license it is pretty cool. I would not suggest using the motorized version on a low vehicle like a Corvette Prius or other car that has less then 6 inch of ground clearance.

I have one and use it on my full size hitch and the 2.5" hitch on my Honda Fit. All that really counts is the top "U" bolt and the bottom "Beam Hanger". It does the job. I had to play with mine a bit to adjust the angle to fit my hitch. I might install it upside down but the Fit bumper is too close to the hitch. I use it for a bicycle carrier on the Fit, and it stopped the side-to-side sway.

Yes, it can go on a bumper. My recommendation is that wherever you put it, make sure it's got a dark background so you can see it. I put it right above the logo for my FJ so it reads Toyoda FJ. Love it.

It fits a standard license plate. I live in NY and it fits mine. I don't think license plates vary in size by make of automobile.I'm assuming your license plate is near the front bumper. It saves your bumper from scratches when a car backs into a tight parking space HEAD ON However, a car can still hit your bumper from an angle on the side of your bumper. I use a full guard latched into my trunk for my back bumper. It's a pretty good product, especially for NYC.

I purchased this for my husband's 1991 Honda Accord and it fits nicely across the windshield (left to right). From the top to the bottom of the windshield it is a bit small and tends to slip down even with the sun visors put down. You have to play with it a bit to make it stay. I hope this helps.
