Bulletin 85-2-1

Date April '84

Ref. No. 84-178-2
SUBJECT: FRONT LICENSE PLATE MOUNTING BRACKET INSTALLATION


MODELS AFFECTED: 1985 ELECTRAS

Some of the early built 1985 Electras did not have attaching holes in the front bumper for the front license plate mounting bracket. To install this bracket on a front bumper without the attaching holes, proceed as follows:

1. Center the bracket in the opening provided for it in the front bumper.

2. Using the bracket as a template, center punch the location of the bracket's two (2) mounting holes on the bottom surface of the bumper.

3. Drill two (7/32) inch or (5.30) mm holes in the bumper and install the bracket using the furnished screws.
