Does anyone know how Ford plans to attach the front license plate bracket? I live in a two plate state and have to have a front plate but do not want needless holes drilled into my truck when it makes it to the dealer. If drilled holes are required then are there any aftermarket brackets that fix this?

There was a thread for this. I'm in a two-plate state, too. (5) Front License Plate Mounts -- any aftermarket fix? | Ranger6G - 2024+ Ranger & Raptor Forum, News, Owners, Community (6th Gen)

Thanks @Critical Habitat that thread appears to be for the regular Ranger. Would the Raptor be any different as far as aftermarket accessories?

OK. No, I have no idea. I'm getting the MN "Critical Habitat" plates with a donation and will use both front and back. You might at least ask your dealer to leave it off for now, if that's what you want. In MN, they can pull you over and ticket you as a primary reason for a stop (like no seatbelts), and I don't know of anywhere else to put the plate but the flat part they put on everyone's bumper.

use the provided license plate bracket. Install tab A into slot B. Fasten with the provided hardware and existing screw holes. No drilling necessary ?

It appears the pictured front plate bracket is for Raptor only.
Took delivery of my Lairiat today. Only had a couple mintues looking at the front bumper, but there are drilling indents for mounting the flat bracket. Very disappointing for non Raptor owners.
I'll get a better look at it tomorrow once I get the truck back from X Line.

I have this similar bracket and while I found the screw holes on the u seaside of the bar that runs across the front of the Ranger Raptor, the upper clips won’t fit through the space above to clip on. Am I missing something?
