Strength-Optimized
or Safety-Optimized Designs
Choose SnapPlate+ for hardened features for maximum strength or SnapPlate for breakaway features that add extra vehicle safety in case of touch car washes, parking accidents, and minor mishaps (SnapPlate is available for the 2017-Jan 2024 Model 3 only).
SnapPlate+ is an all-new design optimized for strength:
- Base with added side ribs and additional stainless steel reinforcement
- Thicker plate mount with longer stainless steel fasteners
- Larger-diameter, adjustable-fit, rotating latches with multiple contact points distribute stress on the grille
SnapPlate is our original design with features optimized for grille safety:
- Base with breakaway rotating latches
- Optional breakaway joints are available separately for plate mounts
- Lighter construction designed to sacrifice itself in touch car washes and minor parking accidents

Great fit, nice video instructions. So easy to put on. Only takes a couple minutes.
Purchased two, one for Juniper Y and another for a Highland 3. The MY fit flawlessly. However, this M3P variant fit less than ideal. It was loose with a lot of front-to-back play. Fortunately for me I had a few square felt pads lying around. The pads fit perfectly on the square bottom of the arms and eliminated the play. Aside from that, the item securely and easily latches on to the grill.
SnapPlate Customer Service Is Great. I received an email asking me if I was satisfied with my purchase. I replied that my holder was cracked and that I used super glue to fix it. SnapPlate immediately responded to say they wanted to make it 'right'. I should be receiving a replacement holder soon at no charge. Much appreciated.
Incredibly easy to install, looks awesome. Can't ask for more!
Although it's 3d printed, quality is not suspect in any way.
I had to buy a replacement because my original snapped after two and a half years of use. The actuator wouldn’t turn to release the latches on the old holder. Support could only give me some suggestions and a discount code on a new one. I ended up using a hammer to break the actuator and a rusted screw to get the old one off.
The new one is supposed to fix the issue, but we will see. It already doesn’t fit the grill particularly well. I already had to force it into the grill and heard scratching sounds, even though I bought the one (2024-2017) that’s supposedly for my year.
Wonderful product. Thank you
Looks great, durable, incredibly easy to install. This is a great option. If you’re required to have a front license plate without drilling into your car.
Very good and easy to install and fully recommend it.

Great product. Easy to put on/take off. Be sure and follow the "remove for touches car washes" warning - as mine was unceremoniously ripped off during the car wash when I forgot to remove it. Hence my second purchase. Happy with the product and the service.
Where I live you must have a front plate, I didn't know how I was going to be able to get one on without drilling holes in my car I so happy I made this purchase it was very easy to put on and it's looks great on my New Tesla!
Very good product. I love the ease of putting on and taking off the front license plate.
Love it!!
Very impressed.
Looks great.
Easy to assemble and attach.
Excellent product and excellent customer service! I bought this for my model 3 2026 performance
This is my second plate holder. The one from 2018 finally broke a day after someone took it through a car wash when they shouldn't have. The new one has a cheaper replaceable breakaway part, which could be handy.
Fast delivery, excellent quality, and easy to install.
This is exactly what I was looking for!
I did not like the license plate holder that came with the Tesla. It had a no drill option, but it was still just as bad in my opinion.
This fixes EVERYTHING. Can be installed quickly or removed quickly, and requires zero drilling or physically attachment to the body of the car.
This is the BEST solution as it leaves thef front camrea to do its thing.
Excellent product.
I have multiple 3D printers and CAD skills, so I rarely buy something that I could make myself, but this thing is just too good.
Installed quite nicely. Here's hoping it will last!
Easy to install. Unobtrusive by design. Customer service is great.
Cool, clever design. Fast delivery. Reasonably priced
Finally found a license plate bracket that is easy to put on, secure not wobbly, and adjustable. I replace another bracket that was insecure and loose. SnapPlate was super easy to install and secure, the extra security of the SnapPlate+ is a great option for those needing to remove the bracket occasionally . I definitely recommend SnapPlate, a very creative and functional design.
Originally had the Tesla supplied hilder that's held on by tape. This is way more secure and doesn't risk damage to the paint.
I have bought two and I like it.
It was delivered in a timely manor. Was very quick and easy to install.
It is so easy to install and to mount a plate on, torally recommended!
We’re on our ninth family Tesla and we think these SnapPlates are the best way to show off (and remove) our plates in our front-plate-state of Texas. Get one! Or get nine.
Great product. Built well, and easy to use and take off..
