Now that I've installed the SnapPlate front license plate holder, I finally filled out the EveryAmp review. Here it is. Hope it helps others: Shipped promptly, so the license plate holder arrived well before we picked up the car. Engineered and built VERY precisely to hold the plate very close to the front bumper without scraping. Installation instructions were clear, would have benefited from one more picture showing how to find the center slots in the grille. Grille Depth Adjustment instructions were also clear; with one half-turn adjustment of three screws, the license plate holder fit PERFECTLY in place. Check the EveryAmp web site for photographs of how much their product blocks the front camera image at every setting. After reviewing the photos, I chose the center setting. I find the camera interference at that setting is trivial for me. There's a lot of competition for the front-of-R1 real estate. My understanding is that Rivian's front plate holder requires drilling a hole in a perfectly good vehicle, and can also block a small part of the camera image. Tow hook mounts take a tow hook out of commission, and can block a sensor. EveryAmp's mount is designed to protect the grille by snapping off when attacked by a car-wash brush, so you have to dismount it (relatively easy to do) and remount it before washing. I'm still happy with the EveryAmp product, which we have installed in our R1S and now R1T. Very best wishes!

This is not an installation guide, as BuiltRight has good guides and great videos to explain the install process.

Last week I installed the cab side Molle system. On Sunday, I installed the MAXTRAX mounts and the bedside Molle system

The MAXTRAX can be a little tricky to install, it’s all about getting the right slot with the right mounting feature hole. Watch their video for tips.

After finishing that, it was a race against the sun, which was now starting to poke around the tree that was sheltering me!

The Bedside Molle racks were even easier to install, as I could do it standing up outside the bed. Try that with a CyberTruck!

I recently received a small gift from work of a RAINS waterproof duffle. It turns out that with a bit of work I can make both my Rivian recovery kit as well as my Voodoo kinetic rope fit into the bag. I figure it’s a perfect way to store them both in my garage as well as when taking them out in the dirt. Keeps them together and out of any moisture if I decide to strap them onto one side of the bed while off-roading.
