Front license Plate bracket

[Jeff3820]

Our state requires a front license plate. Does Tesla mount a front license plate bracket/holder to the MY before delivery? I've seen 3rd party brackets/holders available for the M3 but Tesla must have some solution to be compliant with state laws...

It comes with one that uses adhesive. It's crappy. Also, searching for things before starting a new thread is good.

Thanks but tried that and all you see are 3rd party ones for sale...

One of the spy photos of a Y had a license plate holder in the shallow chunk in the front. I could see alcohol swabs with it.

every state is different. I am in California and yes it is required. Tesla will attach the bracket at delivery and will not allow you to drive off without it installed. Tesla tells me its law and they have to comply or no delivery.

I bought this for my wife's M3: SnapPlate Model 3 Front License Plate Mount by LivingTesla

It work great, and allows me to take it off when I wash the car. I'm waiting on the company to make ones for Model Y, as my Model Y is delivered this Saturday.

I can't confirm or deny for Tesla doing that, but for any other (new) vehicle I ever bought they will just have you sign a waiver if you don't want the front plate installed.

Apart from that, most Teslas I see around here do not have a front license plate... Of course could have been taken off after delivery.

Interesting, because I've bought 3 Teslas so far in California, and they did not install the front plate on any of them. Nor did the Chevy dealer on the Volt I bought before I switched to Tesla.

I got mine in early 2018 and I never even received the front plate bracket. Just got my 1st no front plate fix-it-ticket last week.
