I am finally leaving my review after almost 4 years of use. I got my
snap plate holder about Oct in 2019. After looking around, I
settled on this product. I just passed 137,000 miles and the snap
plate design was holding up very nicely.
I know that there have been updates in the design which helped
strengthen the plate holder to the base mount. My first top plate
holder had an issue from wind after 52,000 miles, and it was replaced
with the second updated plate holder (V2) same original base mount.
That one (V2 plate holder) was awesome, no issues until I broke it
myself on accident at about 82,000 miles. I got a replacement for the
plate holder (V3), as the base was still going strong.
I had no issues with the original base mount or V3 plate holder until
being hit with a toll lane barrier stick after someone ran over it on
the 91 express lanes. No damage to my Tesla M3, but I did lose the
snap plate and my front plate at about 108,000 miles.
I originally got this plate thinking I would remove it from time to
time, but never did. It looked good and I had no issues with it
staying on while driving and it has been very solid.
I highly recommend the plate holder! The original Base is still going strong at 137,000 miles and is still solid and secure as the day I purchased it. The V2
and V3 plate holders are also very secure and did their job. I am
purchasing another after I leave this review.
I just had something hit the plate holder as I was driving today and again, it worked as designed. The mount that attaches to the base and plate holder took the hit, broke but held in place until I got home. So I just need to replace that 2 dollar part and it's as good as new.
Again, very solid product that can be removed as needed. I highly recommend it!
