Thank you! That was exactly what I was looking for. I was wondering if I could install the factory bracket without drilling holes in the bumper, but I don't think it's possible.

You can almost definately use double-sided tape to install it without drilling holes.

CVB, I am sure you could try double sided tape. I think some others have slightly modified the bracket and used zip ties to attach it. I spent the money and bought one of the no-drill brackets from ******.
