Sounds simple enough. The lower portion of the bracket is just attached via plastic clips. The upper portion is some sort of oversized metal rivot of some sort. I haven't located a nut to unbolt. Any suggestions?

Thanks in advance

 

either drill out the rivet or take an air chisel to it.. I used the air chisel and it took all of 4 seconds to get those puppies off

 

Hey! A fellow Louisvillian.... Good luck on those brackets...

 

Thanks for the replies, hey Rock

 

I used an old, rusty steak knife and sawed the plastic tabs off inside each recess. You can't even tell there ever was a plate there, unless you were *really* hunting for it! Besides, the leftover plastic helps to fill the gaps that are left behind.

 

I worked on those stupid rivets for an hour... argh! After an hour I said the hell with ever putting that thing back on whacked them off with a box knife!

 

LOL KKirk1,

I did exactly the same thing

 

Not in Cali, you have to have a plate on the front and the back of the car/truck. So don't have to worry about this mod.

 

In Texas you get a ticket, or at least a hassle!!!

Dont need that...
