Default Help with license plate frame

I'm new to the HD nation, I just got my bike last month 2006 Dyna Low Rider. I love it so far, 1000 miles and climbing.

I recently purchased a license plate frame and it doesn't have holes in it and it doesn't really fit under my bracket on my bike.

Here is a link to the product that I bought:

If anyone can help, please let me know.

Does the red reflector snap out? Maybe the two bottom bolts go there? I believe with the stock MoCo license plate frame on the bike, only the 2 bottom bolts hold the plate on. Good luck and be patient. You'll figure it out. Sorry I couldn't help more.

nah..I have that one...the bolt heads slide in on the back of the frame..then depending on your bike, you may have to drill holes in the stock plastic piece (that the plate is bolted to), and then you just lock the new frame with the provided nuts. I'm pretty sure that's how it works..it was a while back when I installed it.
Not sure if I'm explaining that properly...if not, I'll see if I can pull up the instruction sheet from when I bought it and scan it for you. Didn't you get an instruction sheet? or did you buy it used?
Either way, let me know. You can PM me if you want.

Yeah I'm not sure if it snaps out or not, but you would think so because if I put the plate holder on top of the other red reflective I have 2 red strips one on top of the other (the one on the plate bracket and the one on the holder).

But if I slide it down to cover up that other red strip then the plate looks like it doesn't line up at all.

I bought one very similar to that for my Low Rider, but it had holes in it. The holes didn't line up, but the instructions informed me to remove the existing reflector, then attach the plate to the holes, which then lined up, then use the enclosed reflector and position it below the new frame.. Adjustable bracket on top, then slid down on top of the frame to hold in place.

Thanks, I will try to rip the existing red reflective strip off and see how it lines up.

Thanks to an above poster I will also try to slide in the bolts as described in a post above.

I will have more info on it tonight after I try it! Thanks for all the help.
