Polestar 2 SnapPlate Installation Guide
Installation
Choose Your Plate Height
SnapPlate ships with the license plate mount in the high position by default. If you prefer the center or low position, complete the Plate Height Adjustment instructions below before continuing.
Install Your License Plate
Attach your license plate to SnapPlate using four of the included black or silver Torx security screws.
Open the SnapPlate
Press and hold the right button to rotate the mounting latches into the open position.
Position SnapPlate on the Grille
Insert SnapPlate into the center-top of the Polestar 2 grille, then release the right button.
Lock SnapPlate in Place
Press the left button to rotate the mounting latches into the closed position.
Confirm the Mount Is Secure
Check that the left button sits flush with the SnapPlate body. This confirms that the mounting latches are fully closed.
Install the Anti-Theft Security Screw
For additional security, install the included black anti-theft security screw in the opening near the left button.
Remove Before Automatic Car Washes
Remove SnapPlate before entering an automated car wash. Most touchless washes may be fine, but removing SnapPlate beforehand is recommended.
Plate Height Adjustment
The Polestar 2 SnapPlate can be configured in three different license plate positions: High, Center, or Low. SnapPlate ships in the high position by default.
Remove the Plate Mount
Remove the two screws securing the license plate mount to the SnapPlate body.
High Position
With the SnapPlate logo facing upward, position the plate mount with the bottom of the SnapPlate body and reinstall the two screws.
Center Position
With the SnapPlate logo facing upward, align the middle mounting holes with the top of the SnapPlate base and reinstall the screws.
Low Position
With the SnapPlate logo facing upward, align the top holes of the plate mount with the top holes in the SnapPlate base and reinstall the screws.
Install Your License Plate
If it is not already installed, attach your license plate using four of the included black or silver security screws.
Grille Depth Adjustment
If SnapPlate is too tight or too loose on your Polestar 2 grille, the mounting latches can be adjusted to provide the proper fit.
Prepare the T10 Driver
Remove the T10/T25 bit from the included screwdriver handle and reinstall it with the smaller T10 bit facing outward.
Locate the Adjustment Screws
Locate the T10 Torx screw in the center of each rotating latch. Adjust both latches equally to maintain an even fit.
Increase Latch Depth
Turn each adjustment screw counterclockwise 1/2 turn. Each 1/2-turn adjustment loosens the latch by approximately 0.25 mm. Pull each latch outward with your fingers to make sure it has extended, then test the fit on the grille.
Decrease Latch Depth
Turn each adjustment screw clockwise 1/2 turn. Each 1/2-turn adjustment tightens the latch by approximately 0.25 mm. Test the fit on the grille and repeat in small increments as necessary.
