EMP Bracket

[sonny]

Had a little problem installing the bracket. Maybe i missed something in the package but it came with no hardware. Ended up taking the stock rubber grommets and cutting them in half, placing them on the two little brackets that hold the licencing plate in place. Filled up the gap so it is a pretty solid mount.The holes on the licence plate holder are much smaller than the stock so the grommets would not fit. The RH turn signal is shot. The fixture that holds the bulb was cracked where the course screw goes in. Truimph only sells the entire turn signal. Pretty much a piece of crap. Life is full of little surprises. The little light that lights up the licence plate was burned out to so I bought one of those to. So now I am out another $50.00 bucks. I can say it looks better with the new bracket but what a pain in the @ss.

Extreme metal products makes a license plate bracket that brings the plate up higher and pulls the signals in closer to show more tire. Part #9204 www.extrememetalproducts.com

It is a real pain in the @ss to install so that it will not be loose. I spent about A hour looking at the mechanics of the **** thing and decided to split the stock grommets in half and then insert them between the two brackets it worked out rather well. Just today I got my turn signal from Hermy's so I am going to pull the guts to the light and finish the installment when I get a day off. Been kind of busy at work so it will not be until after the first. It should look really sharp. life should be easier than this.

Can't follow the troubles you are speaking of with your EMP plate bracket.
If you be speaking of this one - it worked great for me on my R3R with no issues.
Sorry you are having troubles.

No troubles. The holes in the EMP bracket could have been a bit wider like the stock metal bracket. We figured it out and it took a bit but the finial assemble should look really sharp.

There are two types of Triumph brackets that hold the number plate - one has larger holes for the grommets

They did not show two types when I bought the bracket from EMP. Live and learn.
