I would love to see this actually go through. It has been attempted before and never passed but it is worth a shot. I get tired of getting BS tickets for no front plate but I refuse to put one on my car.

I was the same, till I was told by the State Trooper, that if you get 3 its a misdemeanor charge...unfortunately front plate went on the next day.

This law sucks, just an excuse to give a ticket. Wished they'd repeal it nationally.... IMO as long as you have a rear plate and everything is legal why does this matter???

Ah, I love Pennsylvania To think that I can legally own, carry and protect myself with a firearm; No front license plates; Radar detectors are legal; Only State Police can use radar and only while stopped - no moving radar. I really love it here!

I got tired of dealing with it and just called the county clerk in my hometown and faxed her a set of orders... Got a TN military plate in the mail two days later.

I just installed the remote show-n-go plate, because the A$$clown gate gaurds on my base here want to give me problems about my plate. So now, if I need the plate I flip it out other than that it stays hidden.

It was super easy to install, it required 3 holes and 2 wires oh and some double sided tape. It took all of about 15 mins to have it all done and cleaned up. Mine has been working great for about 5-6 months now.

If you get onto their ebay store, you can normally get them cheaper and with free shipping.

Here are some pics of the car
Looking down at nose or the car


Front shot without the plate up


Plate out


This is the best I can do for attachment points


These foam rubber pieces prevent any paint damage


A video of how it works


The bracket uses 3 bolts to hold it on, the screws go into some rubber expanding nut zerts
