Default Front License Plate Bracket

Hello!

Does anyone know how to remove the front license plate bracket? Does removing it affect anything?

Thanks!

Remove 4 screws and enjoy no reprogramming necessary.

I believe it was only 2 screws and pry it off. It pops on and off the top ridges.

Just wondering how you ended up getting this bracket off. Just had a new 2020 TT delivered. Had asked dealer to remove bracket and they forgot. Mine looks like this one and has two very small screws in the holes along the top, as well as two at the bottom which are not visible in this picture. Once removed the bottom is loosened, but the top appears to be clipped down over the grille. I am afraid to pull too hard and break the grille. Any suggestions would be appreciated.

Just pull it after you remove the screws. It pops off.

I know it seems daunting to lift-pop off a panel, especially the relatively fragile urethane/plastic front fascia, but keep in mind that Audi makes it easy for dealers to add/remove same given differing state requirements (pre-owned out of state auctions in particular). Just first remove the screws and again lift as you pop it off.

Thank you for your response. The guys who delivered my TT yesterday had tried to take it off but were afraid of breaking the grille. Based on what you said, I decided to try it myself. My late husband was a mechanic and I was a computer programmer. So I am very familiar with car things and take an analytic view before trying something new. So I removed the two screws and pulled out on the bracket just a little. I then tried pushing the bracket up. Immediately I could see what was stopping it from coming off. It has to be pulled out far enough to clear that little lip on the grille just below the top of the bracket. Otherwise it is not coming off. So I pulled out far enough to clear that and it easily pushed up and off!

I appreciate your response.
