Front Number Plate Mount

Any chance any one on here knows how to remove the number plate mounting? Got some new black plates for the car and think it would look abit nicer without the mounting as the front plate is also slighly smaller!  :happy2:

You have to take off the front grille (easy peasy four screws) then push the circular plastic clip on the back of the grille that hold on the plate holder through (you'll see what I mean once the grills off) then you can pop the clips holding the plate holder on out!  :happy2:

Call me if you want a clearer explanation Manu!  :happy2:

P.S. You will need to remove the Number plate first!  :wink:

Or you can remove the number plate and just drill the clips out from the front without taking any of the grilles off!  :smiley:

Trust me it would be more effort! The front grille is soooooo easy to take off!  :wink:
