There are better more robust designs for sure but for under $10 probably not....

I had to blurr the company name on it but if you search winch licence plate you'll find it.
That company claims Quadratec carries their product, but I didn't see the EZ-flip license plate bracket on Q's site.

4wd lists it on thier site.

You can also use mop handle clips or similar at you big box hardware store instead of mag clips. They are metal, but still use a "safety strap"

Cheapest method is to use cable ties. Four of them, one for each hole, no safety strap need. Downside is them must be replaced when the plate is pulled.

You'll want the clips for a "D" cell flashlight.

I like the idea of having that front plate so easily removeable. Thanks for the ideas...
