Flip-Up License Plate Holder for Hawse Fairleads

SKU: BW07-0001

$69.00

The Flip-Up License Plate Holder mounts a front plate directly on a hawse fairlead, so you can stay street legal without blocking your winch. It fits Backwoods Adventure Mods Hi-Lite bumpers on the Toyota Tacoma and 4Runner, plus any bumper with enough room around the fairlead.

The bracket is 2 mm high-tensile steel in black powder coat and weighs about 1.2 lb. Four hole patterns fit most plates, and a built-in ABS washer keeps the hinge from flopping on the highway.

Installing it is simple: the bracket clamps behind your fairlead using the fairlead's own bolts. On a Hi-Lite bumper you'll add two small drilled holes so the plate has room to flip up when you spool out the winch. We ship it free within the contiguous U.S.

Will the plate rattle?A built-in ABS washer holds it firmly while driving.
