Instruction Guide - Polestar 2 2020+ SnapPlate

Plate mounts are shipped in the high position by default. If you prefer a different position, follow the Plate Height Adjustment instructions ☝️ to adjust before continuing.

Install your license plate using four of the included black or silver torx security screws.

Press and hold the right button to rotate the latches open.

Insert SnapPlate into the center-top of the grille and release the right button.

Important! Press the left button to rotate the latches closed and engage the magnets.

If the button is too difficult to fully close or the SnapPlate feels loose on the grille, adjust the latches following the Grille Depth Adjustment instructions. ☝️

Check that the left button is flush with the body to confirm that the latches are fully closed.

Optionally, install a black anti-theft security screw in the hole near the left button.

Note: If the screw doesn’t reach, make sure the latches are fully closed from Step 5.

Don’t forget to remove SnapPlates for automated car washes. Most touchless washes are fine, but better to be on the safe side!

Polestar SnapPlates ship in the high position by default, but are adjustable into 3 possible positions.

Turn each screw counterclockwise (lefty loosey) 1/2 turn to loosen the latches by 0.25mm. Pull each latch with your fingers to make sure they are extended and then try the fit on the grille.

Repeat up to four times (two full turns) as needed.

Important! Contact support before proceeding past two turns. If loosened more than two turns, the SnapPlate could become stuck in the grille and it may be very difficult to remove.
