Front License Plate Installation
Some confusion may exist in mounting the front license plate on the 1985 spectrum. The license plate mounting holes are not drilled
thru the bumper face material; as many states do not require front license plates. There are mounting bosses with pre-drilled holes for
self tapping screws behind the center bumper face. The correct hole location is marked by very small hard-to-see dimples located
approximately 5/8" down from the top of bumper center section and approximately 3-1/2" each side of the center line (see the
attached illustration). After locating these dimples, special caution should be used in drilling. Use only a 7/32" drill and only drill
approximately 1/8" deep or just through the face. Too large a drill or off location will damage the mounting bosses. There are two (2)
self tapping screws for the front license plates in the plastic envelope in the glove box along with the rear license plate attaching
screws.
