    Install onto your FIAT

    1. Locate the two T30 Torx screws (or 10mm Hex Screws) underneath the bumper on the driver's side and remove them using your T30 Torx key. NOTE: If you do not have a T30 Torx key, with care you may use your 5/32 Hex Key in it’s place.

    2. Line up the holes in the Base Mount with the holes under the bumper and replace the factory screws. Confirm that the ‘step’ under the T30 Torx screw heads are completely set within the Platypus Base Mount oblong holes.

    4. Thread the M10 Flanged Head Screw into the threads on the License Plate Tab until it’s about ⅛ away from bottoming out. Next, slip the Keyhole License Plate Mount over the flanged screw head and slide it to the right, fully seating the Keyhole against the threads of the flanged screw. Visually level the plate mount and tighten into place.
