License Plate Relocation 2012 tC
About two weeks ago I bought a 2012 tC and LOVE it. I'm trying to figure out the best way to mount my front license plate, and I like the tow hook mod. I'm planning on going to a home improvement store to find something the same size as the tow hook to drill into and mount a bracket, and I would like some advice and/or help with this project. I saw the sticky thread about the relocation (https://www.scionlife.com/forums/sci...1-50-a-199704/) but all the photos are missing and those are pretty important. And, I don't want to relocate my license plate to the grill.
My idea is just to find the right size bolt for the tow hook, drill some size hole (5/16? idk haha) into the end, have a bolt for that hole, and purchase a cheap license frame to mount.
Thoughts/ideas?

My CravenSpeed Tow Hook License Plate Mount is well worth the cost. It can be Mounted on either side of our tCs because we have 2 Tow Mount Holes:

I think that thread size will probably be tough to find, especially in a length that works. Our's ends up being about 117mm in length. Even the one stud we make in that thread size requires a spacer on the tC.
If you aren't able to find something that works, let me know and I can hook you up with at least a used stud and spacer, then you can make the frame.
You can email me directly: logan@cravenspeed.com
