Gonna need some help from peeps on this one :) hopefully someone here has installed this before, if need it will be a learning experience for me lol

I never thought I'd be putting together a how to regarding this topic since I despise front license plates lol but since I just moved to Minnesota they require one booooooooo.(missing AZ already haha)

I am bummed that I have to put one on since I love the way the Equinox looks in the front, but I am telling myself its not the end of the world haha.

Hopefully this will help others.

I will prob make a video or have some helpful pictures.

Part number is

GM# 25798733

I paid $27.05+tax at local Dealership, you might be able to find It online cheaper, I could not since shipping or fee's online was the same for me.

It did not come with any mounting hardware, which I found was strange. The bag was sealed and I asked other dealers to see if theirs came with bolts or rivets and they all have just the bracket itself. Funny cause the instructions say to use rivets, but none are provided. Maybe dealers just use their own hardware. Oh well I was going to use stainless steel bolts anyways or long sturdy plastic bolts.

My question is, has anyone ever installed this on their 2010-13 Equinox? I searched the forum and found a few peeps did on their Terrain, but our bumpers are different.

Wanted get an idea of how long of bolts I will need. I assume there is a foam price behind the bumper so the bolts will have to past this point.

Anything is helpful. Along the way I will post tips and compile it all Into a nice how to like my other threads.
