Is it necessary to install a license plate bracket?
2 Answers
License plate brackets are necessary to install. Here is a detailed introduction to license plate brackets: Function: A license plate bracket is a frame for holding the license plate, also known as a license plate frame or license plate holder. There is one at the front and rear of the vehicle. It serves to secure the license plate, protect the license plate and the vehicle body, and prevent the license plate from damaging the body. Installing anti-theft screws on the license plate bracket can also provide anti-theft functionality. Compatibility: Some imported vehicles have license plate mounting holes that differ from those of domestic license plates. License plate brackets can also address compatibility issues with mounting license plates on imported vehicles.
As a driver who frequently travels long distances, installing a license plate holder is indeed necessary. It protects the edges of the license plate from rust or scratches. For example, after installing one in my car, my license plate has remained intact for three years, unlike others whose plates have corroded or deformed. The holder also secures the screws to prevent loosening, reducing the risk of the plate falling off, which is crucial for driving safety. If the plate falls off on the road, it could cause an accident. When installing, it's best to choose a stainless steel holder because it's corrosion-resistant and affordable—the one I bought only cost a few dozen yuan. Tighten it with screws during installation, and remember not to choose a frame that's too large to avoid obstructing the license plate number, as this could result in a fine from the police. In short, it extends the lifespan of the license plate and reduces maintenance costs—definitely worth installing.
