There's the SVC one.

It's pricey, but it's well made.

There is a cheap one on Amazon if you’re interested - it bolts into the holes our license plate brackets bolt into and has a mounting bar across the top. Then you mount your plate to the front of it (if req’d where you live).

It’s cheap at $27 USD but it might not meet your needs…

Intriguing...I wonder how this would be applied to R5G front end? Can't beat the price...

The bolts for our license plate bracket go up into the bumper so it is dead simple - I had to replace my plastic plate holder and used a very similar item (w/o the bar).

In this next image, you can just make out the bracket under the top part of the bumper (circled) and my fancy artwork shows how it’s mounted.

Interesting...not sure on mine...I don't have front plate...which holes are they mounted to?

My 4 bumper lamps are mounted to existing holes which were plugged with plastic caps...where my two middle lights are mounted seems too far apart for a license bracket...

There are two tapped holes on the underside of the upper bumper strip, where your camera and lights are mounted The license plate bracket holes are 7” apart and the outer, plugged holes are 7” from those. There might be more holes but they could be hidden by my bracket…

I could take it off to check for them but it requires a 10mm socket and, well, you know.

Thanks Duke...I'll have to take a look...I swear those plastic caps were the only holes under there...will verify...

i might pick up a used n-fab and make new mounts.

update- thats my plan. i’ll pick up a used (hopefully rusty so i can get it cheap) nfab light bar from a tacoma, blast if, weld up new mounts and the. paint it magnetic grey. bam.

in ordered my dual function switch harness from caliraised led. i bought stuff from them for my tacomas. the harness is for a tacoma with the “small” switch, which is what lightforce uses in their facia panel.
