    Euro Plates

    To the guys with euro plates, what was your method of mounting it?

    I looked up on amazon and some OEM online vendors but amazon doesn't have anything convincing and I couldn't find a OEM mounting hardware. I rather not do the double sided tape because I am not to convinced it will hold up. I also wouldn't want to mickey mouse it with zip ties.

    So I am curious how you peeps seek solutions

    When I put a Front Euro plate mount over my US Spec S3 it was partially covering the Front Sensors which would mess with the parking assist in the front.

    Unfortunately the grille for European models has the plate holder built into it so there is no interference with the front parking sensors. This does however mean a whole new grille is needed to properly mount a European plate on a North American model.

    If you or anyone else is interested these are available if needed, PM or email for details or you can view the options on the website as well: [email protected]

    Whenever I see a Euro plate I can't help but think of this "Letter to Doug" on Jalopnik.
