    CA TUNED US plate filler

    I was wondering when installing the plate filler, is the side of the plate filler suppose to be flush with the taillights?

    Early or late plate filler? Early style does not. Late style does.

      I have the late model tails, 92' vert. I have these 4 white plate holder. I'm unsure if I'm suppose to leave it on or not.
      If not, do I just pull these straight out?

        These are better suited for plate fillers:

          I actually have these. My question is, do I remove the previous white ones? If so, do I just pull them straight out?


          When putting a screw into the plate brackets, does the screw create its own rivets into the brackets?

            You'll have to push the four brackets out by first removing the trunk liner behind the tail lights.
