Carpokes Porsche Forum

Other owners may have wrestled with what to do/not do with attaching a front plate without damaging the car. You may have seen this elegant solution on another forum https://www.taycanforum.com/forum/threa ... ched.2425/
Here are some pictures of my rendition of this setup. The beauty of it the ability to quickly swap the transponder for the front plate if the cops give you a hard time or for inspection purposes. Both the transponder and plate mount above the cameras. I modified the design a little from the original and have stl and PETG gcode files if anyone is interested in printing their own supports. I also sourced very nice black anodized stainless steel hardware from the UK.

Love this! As you may or may not have noticed, we sell a rear license plate mount for the 911 and Cayman/boxsters, which originally started out 3D printed. I just could not keep up with demand on my little printer, so eventually had them CNC'd in solid ABS. I can't tell from those pictures, but are there any threads in the plastic? I used heat-set brass thread inserts to give the plastic real threads that would outlast the car. See pic below. McMaster now sells the inserts too (and has them in stock all the time, unlike the ones in that picture). Worth considering if you are screwing into the plastic, as plastic threads are prone to stripping.

Is the .stl file for that mount public domain or creative commons licensed, such that you could post it in the 3D section below? I'm trying hard to have that section become a resource for Porsche-related 3D parts files.

Original stl files were public I believe, certainly readily available from link. My mods are nothing very dramatic but can certainly let you have them or upload as you wish. The brass threads are a great idea. I put locknuts embedded in counter sinks and held in place with spot of superglue. Modifying files for brass inserts would be a more elegant option. I used all stainless hardware to weather better and found black anodized at accu.co.uk.
