Can't stress enough Make sure the darn thing is straight before those rivets go in Just traded my 2010 for a 2013 and the dealer I got it from put the darn thing on a little off, I notice it salesman says once plate is on you will never know.NO DRILL, NO HOLES FRONT LICENSE PLATE HOLDER MOUNT BRACKET RELOCATORįOR AUDI BMW MERCEDES INFINITI VOLKSWAGEN VOLVO ACURA ALFA ROMERO BENTLY BUICK CADILLAC CHEVROLET CHRYSLER DODGE FIAT FORD GENESIS GMC HONDA HYUNDAI JAGUAR JEEP KIA LAND ROVER LEXUS LINCOLN MAZDA MINI COOPER MITSUBISHI NISSAN PONTIAC PORSCHE SATURN SUBARU TESLA TOYOTA We will see, I was hoping someone else has installed this before, but looks like I gotta figure it out lol. I might just have to do it or use stainless steel self taping screws.
So now it makes sense why GM dealerships rivet these on. Not sure if there is enough room to tighten up a bolt from behind.

I can feel a thick metal bracket plus some wiring all in plastic loom behind the bumper. I don't trust any double sided tape since the front will get slammed with wind, salt, snow and rain. So gonna have to dust off my rivet gun, also looking at other ways to mount it. Totally not worth it since you can use other 3/16 diameter rivets. Very expensive for each rivet they are $4-5. So the 4 metal rivets GM uses when installing these are GM Part number 11516807.

Install license plate under the 2 upper tabs and drive the supplied 2 lower screws to the bracket. Using the lower 2 holes in bracket as a template drill two 6MM dia. Ensure license plate bracket is centered prior to riveting the bracket to fascia at the upper 2 holes 5. Using the upper 2 holes in the bracket as a template, drill two 6MM dia. Use the notched areas at the 2 lower outer locations to match the angled surface of the unpainted fascia (up/down location) 3. Center the Bracket to the center feature line of the fascia. I am glad it does have side grooves were the plastic bottom front unpainted fascia piece meets the painted bumper part, this will make it really easy to align straight FYI 6mm is very close to 1/4inch & 25mm is close to 1inch long It reads 1. The instructions are printed on the plastic bracket itself, kinda hard to read but I typed it out to help.

Along the way I will post tips and compile it all Into a nice how to like my other threads. I assume there is a foam price behind the bumper so the bolts will have to past this point. Wanted get an idea of how long of bolts I will need. My question is, has anyone ever installed this on their 2010-13 Equinox? I searched the forum and found a few peeps did on their Terrain, but our bumpers are different. Oh well I was going to use stainless steel bolts anyways or long sturdy plastic bolts. Maybe dealers just use their own hardware. Funny cause the instructions say to use rivets, but none are provided. The bag was sealed and I asked other dealers to see if theirs came with bolts or rivets and they all have just the bracket itself. It did not come with any mounting hardware, which I found was strange. Part number is GM# 25798733 I paid $27.05+tax at local Dealership, you might be able to find It online cheaper, I could not since shipping or fee's online was the same for me. I will prob make a video or have some helpful pictures. Gonna need some help from peeps on this one hopefully someone here has installed this before, if need it will be a learning experience for me lol I never thought I'd be putting together a how to regarding this topic since I despise front license plates lol but since I just moved to Minnesota they require one booooooooo.(missing AZ already haha) I am bummed that I have to put one on since I love the way the Equinox looks in the front, but I am telling myself its not the end of the world haha. A bracket with two rear license plate lamps is located on the rear bumper directly below the spare tire on vehicles manufactured for export markets.
