Rear License Plate Bracket

[LChomie]

My dealer put the temp tag on my LC. When I went to put on the real plate there's nothing but some roughed up tape behind it. Am I missing something here or does the plate really just bolt directly to a painted part?

Toyotas do not have rear plate brackets

I added a silicone plate frame to keep the plate from directly touching the paint. So far, so good.

Mine looked the exact same. Problem solved for $10: Amazon.com

My dealer always puts a plastic outer plate frame on with their advertising. I hated those things but if you flip it around and put it behind the plate it makes for a nice and easy paint protector with only 2 tiny side tabs

visible.

I've used the silicone plate fames on previous vehicles and they work great. For the LC, I also got some nice stainless screws and used anti-seize on the threads to keep the threads from getting moisture and dirt that might cause corrosion or galling. I've tried plastic screws in the past and they have always weakened with exposure to the elements and broke when trying to remove them.

I had the same thought, but looking at yours, it's seems normal.

I did the exact same thing with the Aujen silicone frame, both front and back.
