I'm looking for a front step that functions basically as a front license plate holder.
We had one on our 1995.
It would fold down and then turn into a step that you could stand on to reach higher.
Anyone have a link to these? I'm looking for one for our 2021.
Hi Ted; You could mount a license plate on one of these folding steps: Amazon.com: Carr 190001 Mega Step : Automotive (https://www.amazon.com/Carrs-190001-Mega-Step/dp/B008E9Z130/ref=asc_df_B008E9Z130/?tag=hyprod-20&linkCode=df0&hvadid=312061937753&hvpos=&hvnetw=g&hvrand=1873793953805967793&hvpone=&hvptwo=&hvqmt=&hvdev=c&hvdvcmdl=&hvlocint=&hvlocphy=9061201&hvtargid=pla-491932014920&psc=1&tag=&ref=&adgrpid=63195598278&hvpone=&hvptwo=&hvadid=312061937753&hvpos=&hvnetw=g&hvrand=1873793953805967793&hvqmt=&hvdev=c&hvdvcmdl=&hvlocint=&hvlocphy=9061201&hvtargid=pla-491932014920) . You'd need to drill holes in the bumper metal part. On my rig's bumper, the plastic parts would get in the way. Your much newer bumper might be much different. Ronb

Thanks.
I'll probably settle for a folding step stool instead. I don't want to be drinking holes and there's probably no way around that.
I never found a folding step that looked right, still, I had the need to climb up higher for cleaning the windshield.
I placed 2" wide 3M Saftery Walk tape on the bottom of the radiator air intake opening, the tape provides an anti-slip step, I can now get to the center of the windshield for cleaning

I went out and measured and unfortunately my "step" is not wide enough less than half inch.
We enjoyed one on our 1998MB. I’ve searched for an hour and cannot find a folding step that is set up to hold a license as well.
Only this old one on eBay.

I always wondered why there was this tape installed on my rig. Now I know!

WOW! Sold for 100 bucks
I have a similar one on my '88
Easier mounting on the Oldies than the newer ones...
Go to Ragusa RV. They make an aluminum license plate step for the front bumper of a GMC. it’s $79 don’t know if it’s a good fit or not but it’s aluminum it’s nice
