Front license plate required on your 2025-2026 Ford Expedition? This no-drill front license plate mount bolts to the factory tow hook, so you can run a legal front plate without putting a single hole in your bumper. Also called a front license plate relocation kit, a tow hook plate bracket, or a front plate relocator — same part, whatever you searched to get here.
Designed specifically for the 2025-2026 Expedition. This kit installs on the driver-side tow hook only, which is what clears the adaptive cruise control system mounted on the passenger side. That keeps full sensor functionality with no interference — a detail that matters on this platform, since the Expedition places its radar differently than Ford's trucks.

Frequently Asked Questions
Do I have to drill my bumper to mount a front license plate on my Expedition?
No. This mount bolts to the factory driver-side tow hook using the included hardware. There is no drilling, no cutting, and no permanent modification to your bumper.
Why does this mount on the driver side?
The 2025-2026 Expedition places its adaptive cruise control sensor on the passenger side of the front bumper. Mounting the plate on the driver-side tow hook keeps that sensor completely clear, so adaptive cruise and the front parking system keep working as designed.
Will this block my parking sensors or adaptive cruise control?
No. The driver-side design exists specifically to avoid the passenger-side radar module. Factory parking sensors, adaptive cruise, and collision assist all keep working.
What is this front license plate bracket made of?
Laser-cut aluminum with a steel lower support bracket, CNC formed in-house and finished in hammer black powder coat. Made in the USA.
How long does installation take?
About ten minutes with basic hand tools. No special tools, drilling, or fabrication required.
Is mounting hardware included?
Yes. Everything you need to bolt the mount on comes in the box.
