Do Waste Your Money

This could have been so much better with little effort and cost

License Plate Bracket

Was going to buy this for my trailer hitch bike rack. However after reading the reviews and comments back from Thule, no way. 1st) do you at Thule know how hard it is to constantly remove and re-install a trailer hitch bike rack? I know you guys recommend this, but for serious daily riders, this suggestion is stupid. 2) you’ll be happy to know Florida just passed a law on 10/1/25 that if you are are pulled over for a license obstruction charge, you can face 60 days in jail (don’t believe me, google it). Don’t you think your Thule team can make a license plate bracket that can fit on your hitches full time, meeting the legal requirements of not obstructing license plates without the aggregation of removing straps, plates, hitches etc…..

License Plate Holder

Reason why strap is behind license plate being theft is not credible as it takes a Philips head to steal any plate. If someone's intention is to steal they will. Just make the same one with straps on the outside. We use our bikes daily, not going to take rack off and on daily. And not necessary to take plate off everytime I need to adjust placement for when rack is up or down. Design flaw all around

Product As Expected But

One of the lights didn't work when I received it. No answer from Thule as what can I do, ideally without returning the whole license plate holder. The rest is as expected.

Works Great

I installed the license plate holder in such a way that I can simply turn the holder to display the license plate when the rack is up or down without removing the license plate. This way I can keep the bike rack up when not in use and my license is displayed. When the rack is down I spin the holder to display the license. This method works great. However, once my trip is over I remove the bike rack and reinstall the license plate back on my vehicle.

Not Easy To Use

Switching the plate between down position (w/ bikes) and up position (w/o bikes) is difficult. The strap mechanism is behind the plate. This forces you to remove the plate each time.

Verified Purchase

Easy To Use!

This license plate holder is easy to install and uninstall. Works great!

Not Secure

Just bought this but still not moved my plate to it till I figure out how to lock it with a secure metal lock strap. Having you plate attached with a Velcro strap doesn’t make sense a thief can steal it in seconds.
