Fishbone Hawse Fairlead License Plate Mount

[Jeep4Win]

I just saw this mount on Quadratec and was wondering if anyone has it and likes it. Texas requires a front plate so I’m looking for other solutions as well. Seems like an easy install and flips up to access winch.

Decided to add my thoughts to this old thread instead of starting a new one.

I got the Fishbone front license plate mount last week and immediately installed it. The install would have been very easy except that the Warn fairlead has a bump on the top for the Warn Logo. That bump keeps the Fishbone mount from seating down onto the fairlead mounting bolts. That led me to flip the Warn fairlead. Not a big deal but something to keep in mind.

The only downside to this mount is that it doesn't stay flipped up. It will slowly come down. i'm going to get a couple plastic washers to see if that provides enough friction to hold things in place.

Flip it upside down also. It will stay open then.
