front license plate in 2001 S80

Everything on the Volvo S80. Sometimes called an "executive car", the S80 was Volvo's top-of-the-line passenger car. P2 platform.

front license plate in 2001 S80

Post by Purpose »

Just brought my s80 up to NYC from GA and NYC requires front license plates.

Dealer wanted to charge 150 to install bracket. Crazy.

Seems like there is just foam behind the plastic bumper. Any concerns here about just shallow holes?

I would go with the factory bracket. You can probably source one for a lot less from www.erievovo.com or www.vandsautodismantlers.com
.

SOLD - 2001 Volvo S80 T6: Mobil 1 Oil & Synthetic ATF, Brake Performance drilled and slotted front rotors, Akebono Euro Ceramic pads and Yokohama Avid V4S tires, 91K miles.

Thanks, decided to just use a universal bracket (low profile) from RS Strauss.

Went on fine.
