2011 Sierra Hd Front License Plate Bracket


Recommended Posts

Posted

The windows sticker for my 2011 HD shows a $15 front license plate bracket for the truck. When they brought the truck to the dealer they bracket had been taken out. I questioned the salesman and he called the other dealer and they said they would send it.

 

It still has not arrived and now they are saying there is not a bracket for the 2011 font plates. It’s been over a month and they are jerking me around. Today it is they cannot find the correct part number for it and do I really need it.

 

It would not be that big of a deal if I did not need it for a plate. I’d just take them up on the $15 refund.

 

Would anyone here know what part number it is so I can tell these guys what to order?

If you live in a state with a front plate then it required! I have been ticketed for this before, and amazing while not even in my own state by a meter maid despite the fact that there was time on the meter.

If YOU need to find a part number to give to the dealer so they can order a part then its time to find a new dealer. :)

There is no brackets for the Silverado and Sierra HD's (not sure for denali). There is a big rectangular spot on your bumper just above the valance. There should be two pre-marked indents there for plate screws. That is the plate bracket. The $15 is essentially for two indents and two screws and maybe the mold in the bumper? lol.

According to this they are available, 14th down the list

I have found the below on several dealer sites, but none I call have any idea

(will be forced on orders with ship-to states that require a front license plate) - $15.00

 

For now I think I'll just get the $15 refund they offered me.

 

 

So I take it you don't have a Denali then. Did you check that rectangle spot in the bumper like in the picture above?

 

take a look at the second picture:

same with this one:

That spot is the bracket. It comes with 2 plate scrws and in the spot the marked "indents" where they go. Same for the Silverado (I have done pre-delivery inspections on 2 of them).

    • Yes, and also pulling heavy trailers or a large camper up steep grades as well as descending grades such as the more rustic off road camping locations and using engine braking with that low gearing as well as soft ground can just suck the power . I realize pickups these days tend to have an over all lower first gear ratio compared to automatic transmission pickups from years back so that has helped a lot in its ability in high range but there comes a point if in four wheel drive the torque runs out at the wheels, certainly with a gas engine. They don't put two speed transfer cases on pickups for a cool factor, they have a function if one needs that massive torque to the wheels that high range can't deliver. 
    • Notes 7/18/2026   3,400 miles on this batch of Mobil 1 Euro 5W40 since the GDI pump replacement. Alcohol runs very clean when ring seal is tight and the sump isn't getting hosed with fuel. Checked oil level at fill up today as is my practice and grabbed a white Kleenex to look at the color. What color?  I was going to change it but.....  
    • 4 low is really nice on steep boat ramps. 
    • Interesting, I suspect I would have fueled up in Lee Vining as the day prior I would have filled up either in Laughlin or near there and maybe again before I entered Death Valley and once out the other side late that evening as I kept on driving into the night up near Lee Vining. Next morning I most likely fueled up in LV before heading over Tioga Pass into ( as I refer to it as "Yose .... Mite" 😁 ). And again that was 19 years ago but the price then must not have jumped out at me like the 5 bill a gallon theme of nutty cult hippy country Big Sir or head so far up their rear Aspen. I'd be curious to know where the highest prices are in the lower 48, I probably would not be far off to guess somewhere in Cali forn ie. Coldfoot and Prudhoe bay may have those prices beat but that is a whole other world up there and when prices are more normal elsewhere that is about what they can be up there I believe in no mans land. Anyway interesting that the 395 corridor is hosing people and the thing is, its tourist season and its not like there are a lot of competition options when driving up that highway from what I could see. Yup, big ole Boaterhomes and various other RV's ahead and behind me at the Yosemite entrance gate and they have to get their fuel somewhere.  
    • Those can be high, as well as the big California cities. The ones that will pop your eyes out are the 395 corridor on the Eastern side of the Sierra Nevadas. Lee Vining, $7.19 for regular and $8.89 for diesel is what the Google said right now.
