I know I'm not the most handy guy on the planet, but how do I attach the rear license plate? Do I use some of the screws that say front? Are they self tapping?

I appreciate any help on this topic.

Thank you.

As far I recall the rear has no plate holder. Just screw into the holes already there. The only plate holder is for front. Is that a pic of the back license area without any holes ?

Tesla does not provide a rear plate holder. You can use the same self tapping screws for your plate. Mine came with the temporary plate attached to the rear at delivery but itā€™s the same screws as the front ones.

If you are looking for a plate frame/holder, thereā€™s always this one that fits perfectly with the Cybertruck style but Iā€™m biased. šŸ˜‰

Yes, that is the front license plate holder, which has three sets of screws. They are all labeled as front, but I guess Iā€™m supposed to use one set of those screws for the back?

Purchased! Cant imagine how much money your making on this!
Thank you! Please share any feedback after receiving it.

All proceeds are going directly to paying for the cybertruck. ;) Margins aren't that great after paying for materials, various Etsy fees, sponsorship fee, taxes, etc.

Does it cover any of the back up lights? My plate almost does. Just wondering if it covers it up a bit.

I used a little larger sized stainless set of screws.

It goes to the edge of the back up lights. I will take a picture when it gets dark out so you can see where the plate is in relation to the back up lights

Here are some pictures at night with the reverse lights on and the frame. The frame is barely over the reverse light edges but there is plenty of light left over on both sides.

I just received your plate holder today. Itā€™s good quality stuff. Iā€™d recommend it.

Iā€™m so glad you like it šŸ‘ I put aside any frames that donā€™t meet my quality standards.

Would you mind leaving a review on Etsy? Iā€™m new to the marketplace and it would really help me out with some real customersā€™ feedback. Thanks in advance!

Mine has 4 self tapping screws but with this license plate I'll probably need to get some anti-theft ones. :) BTW I did not go with a frame, if you zoom in on the plate check out the phrase that my state uses at the bottom. I figured it was appropriate for the Beast. :)
