    Anybody have troubles removing the license plate on a Gen 2? The bolts on the back just spin and spin, even when pulling on them with a vise grip or trying to lift the license plate while turning them, they don't move out at all. I'm thinking of drilling them out, but I'm thinking whatever they're attached to inside the car will fall down, and I won't have anything to attach new bolts to.

    Front plate correct? You can buy another license plate bracket or just an oversize bolt
