Default Front License Plate Bracket

I just bought a GX from a state where they don't require a front license plate. I did the same thing with my LS and there was a front license plate bracket in the trunk. Is there a front license plate bracket somewhere in the GX?

Also, when I checked the big compartment on the drivers side back in the trunk area, it was empty. What is supposed to be in there? I have found the jack and the tool set.

No bracket, plate just gets screwed into the bumper...there are barely visible dimples there to mark the locations. Self tapping screw...that compartment in he trunk had an emergency kit in there....

Correct. No front bracket for the plate. It gets screwed directly to the bumper.

The storage cubby on the driver's side ought to have the first aid kit in it.

Good deal. Make sure you check the expiration date on the first aid ointment.
