2017-2018 front plate bracket

Picture follows showing the difference between the 2016 and 2015 Plate Brackets. Anybody have a picture of the 2018 or 2017 style on the bottom? My mechanical intuition is failing me on this.

Yes and I said 15 and 16 are different. I can find videos for the 08 and the 2015 but not for the newest version. I find the bottom two screws challenging as to how they wrap around the bottom of the back of the bumper.

As chickdr states and I reiterate, 13/14/15 are the same and 16/17/18 are the same. Period.

So if I am understanding you it is the mounting you are interested in, not the bracket itself? I wasn't clear on that from your first post. It certainly appears it mounts from the underside from the way the bracket looks.

I installed the front bracket on my new '18 this weekend. The bottom screws are inserted in from the front of the vehicle and draw the 2 'arms' on the back side forward and pinch the bumper. I can take a picture if you still need a visual on how it mounts.
