I purchased an ottosteer license plate holder that attaches to the grill underneath the front bumper. I don't have the car yet and curious if anyone knows whether tesla supply the plate holder that the ottosteer arms attach to or do I need to source this separately

Thanks

The factory front plate holder is a plastic piece taped onto the bumper. It has only a plastic back/base without frame around the plate.

Hi, Here are some pics of my install. You use the stock Tesla front plate holder. I requested mine to not be attached to the car when new but it’s pretty easy to remove if it comes attached. They include drilling template for drilling the holes in the Tesla plate holder to attach the arms to. The magnetic attachment is really strong. I have never used the included security screws, just the magnets with zero issues.
Click on below for pics. There’s a video on Ottosteers it’s as well.
