Looking at the rear of my EV, I have a plastic license tag bracket thingy,
about the size of a license plate, attached by two screws to the sheetmetal
on the gate.  The two holes in the tailgate are 3" below the license
light/door handle, and are spaced about 10-1/2" apart.  If those match your
holes, you're missing the bracket! Go see the dealer or drill your plates.
Or, to keep from the plate scratching your paint, go to a parts store, buy a
license plate bracket and drill it to fit, then mount the plate on it.
