NY Relocating plate for RB Air Ram Duct



Cheapest way to move plate ever!

1. Take off current plate and holder
2. Cut off spacers (Look like tabs) from the bottom of the plate
3. Place holder upside down and mount in original holes.

The new location is a little over an inch upwards and now doesn't interfere with the RB intake duct.

Nice write up Arnold

I'd recommend relocating the plate in general.

My OEM plateholder scratched up my bumper horribly. Much touch up paint
