A short piece of 2x2 square tube with a steel plate welded to it. Stick it in the receiver...instant license plate holder.

^^^THat is a good Idea Im thinking about putting a receiver hitch on my XJ and building my bumper from there.
This is how i plan on mounting my license plate.
using a locking pin of course wouldn't want someone just pulling it right out and taking it

i had a front bumper custom made, and i had the guy drill and tap two holes and bought two small bolts and just bolted the plate in. this avoids having to deal with all the zipties and what not.
