after reading thru the tsb's , i noticed some talk about upsidedown license plate installation on front of truck may restrict air flow.


well..i noticed the dealer did just that...also screwing right into the plastic bumper cover ! DAMN...i might have just flipped it over , now what?? she hasnt given me any cooling probs, but being as anal about my new rig as i am...would liked to have righted it just for max airflow thru the frontal areas.. guys...tell me what you think . thanx in advance, BC

leave it unless you have problems with heat, I dont think a little license plate will hurt though

thanks for the info eric, licence plate looks good mounted high with the states motto " live free or die"..later, bc

bob camire,


Why don't you show the dealer the applicable tsb and then what they did to your rig and let them make it right!

If they did damage I would take it back, with the TSB, and make them fix it as good as new. No excuse for doing damage to a new truck due to imcompetance.

thanks for the feedback guys, when i take her in on thursday for checking out the 4 wd service code on the dic, after they get done i think we will discuss the screwholes in the new front bumpa..
