Default 2018 Fat Bob - Blackmill license plate mount too small? Side mount?

Hey!

I have recently purchased my first ever Harley, a 2018 Fat Bob 114. Loving it so far, except for the trailer hitch style license plate holder that are standard here in Canada.

I am very interested in the blackmail plate holder, but it doesn't look like it will work with the license plates we use here which are 5" x 8"

So, that leads me to think I should just get the side mount plate that you lucky guys in the US get by default. Any ideas where to buy this, and what is involved for moving the wiring from the behind the tire setup that I have now?

Thanks for any help!

This is the current setup I have on the bike, moving to the side mount plate it would just sit behind the saddlebag and should work well. Really a shame that we have slightly larger plates here and I can't use the blackmill fender mount plate holder!

Awesome - Looks like I can't PM until I have been on here for 30 days. Do you mind sending me an email and we can get that sorted out? Much appreciated!

Make an adapter or drill new holes for International plates, this base mount is solid. Open your throttles my brothers. Ride safe, blackmill.
