Your license plate is too vertical. The tire will eat it up. I suggest to get it at more of an angle..

There is at least 6 inches between the bottom of the plate and the tire, didn't think it would move that far but will give the plate a "tweak" just to be sure...

I just left the headlight mounts in place and drilled away, after removing the headlight of course.  Can't remember the bit size though.




Hey G Nate

what brand of turn signals are those ?  Have not seen those before, does the little orange part light up ?

Been so busy this week, I did not manage to chop my butt. But I have manage to shorten the Beer Tray. Will post some pics later tonight.



I have the schematic for the bracket that includes mounting for the oem license plate light and license plate holder. Hope fully I can find sometime this weekend to make the bracket and chop my butt.

This schematic is for M620 don't know whether it fits other model or not. Please feel free to use it and if you want Scale 1:1 pdf file, give me your email.

Scotzman was right [drink], after shorten the beer tray, look for a while and decided that I need to chop.

All we can do is educate people now, to skip messing with the beer tray.

Looks good, really mulled over this option for a long time before deciding to just chop the whole thing.  So far no second thoughts...
