So, I made a temporary bracket for the plate while I'm parked. I haven't been ticketed since. Now getting pulled over while driving without a front plate is something different. I've been tagged for those too.

the point is ..yes it can hold it just look for the one you need ..do some research.
NASA invented it ..nuff said
oh and if they want your plates they gonna steal it regardless just like anyone's car ... if they want it bad enough they will take it.
