License Plate Frames
Hello, all. I know this seems like a simple question but many custom
license plate frames have only two holes for screws at the top. The rear plate mounting location on a car often uses 4 screws. Do most of you in this situation find 2 holes sufficient for secure mounting without the plate flapping around? Thanks for your time and comment.

Thanks for your time and comment. Sincerely, Answer is Yes, if well mounted on the top holes. I dont particularly like it, but in my case there is no obvious alternative. |

Thanks for your time and comment. Sincerely, You can always use 3M double sided foam tape or velcro (industiral style...resists water better...) |

For the rear putting two in the top should be good enough, but 4 is always better. |
