How to Remove License Plate Screw Caps?

[NevaehRose]

Here are the methods to remove license plate screw caps: 1. Clean the surface: The owner can first clean the surface of the license plate screw caps, including any rusty areas, to facilitate the subsequent removal process. 2. Use a flat-head screwdriver: Insert a relatively small flat-head screwdriver into the gap of the screw cap, mainly to loosen the crimped part inside the screw cap that acts as a snap. Once loosened, apply slight force to pry the screw cap outward. 3. Loosen the screw: After the screw cap is loosened, the owner can directly insert the screwdriver into the hole to unscrew the screw, thereby removing the screw cap. If the screwdriver cannot pry it open, pliers can be used. Grip the outer shell of the screw cap with the pliers, maintaining an angle parallel to the license plate, and rotate counterclockwise to loosen the original fixing screw. Then, change to an angle perpendicular to the license plate, pulling outward while rotating counterclockwise until the screw is completely removed.
