What is required to get you that info? Pretty sure I don't have anything to check but if it's something easy I can try.

Just looked at the Lug Bolt and the thread on it is finer. The Tow Pin is a coarse thread.

This is the Tow Pin received.

It is a total of 10" long.

The Thickness of the Tow Pin is 1".

The Tow Pin Threads are 3/4". I do not know the thread number.

Hope this helps.
I did not get one...however I'm getting better gas mileage.....No Spare, No Fob, No Hook...My N is being Jennie Craiged.

I saw in the owners manual that it was included. I went back out and checked it again and there it was. Nestled comfortably in its cut-out in the very front far left corner of the styrofoam insert under the cargo hatch. I didn't see it when I first looked.

Take it to an Ace hardware/TSC/NAPA type place and compare/hold it against another known bolt. Thanks for any info!

I have a 2024 NX350 base and have been looking for the tow hook license plate mount as well. Anyone have any luck finding one that fits? I asked ijdmtoy awhile ago and they said they don't have any that fits.

I don't know for sure but I assume there are only a handful of thread sizes for tow hook right? If so, there should be one made with a matching thread size that works right?

Yes, this is exactly what I'm looking for. I recall seeing this on eBay but forgot about after a while. Did anyone try this?

What is the reason wanting to mount license plate on the side instead of the center mount that comes with the car? Just curious.

I received the mount few days ago but didn't try it yet. I'm thinking if the yow hook cover is removed, would it cause the inside to rust since it's exposed to rain, snow, car wash? I as thinking if I can drill a hole to fit the mount's post thru it so less water gets in but seems hard to drill on the right spot.

Do not overthink it, and definitely do not drill anything, If you got the tow hook plate then use it, if you worry about the rust, then maybe use the plate that goes in front of a grill, or do not use any plates at all.
