Not many suggestions available...
1. Keep the plate off and risk being stopped and possibly fined.
2. Put the plate on and forget about it
3. Move to a location where the front plate is not required.

there was one guy awhile ago who posted a video on youtube of a flip bracket he made with an actuator and a swittch inside thecar, so when he fliped the switch the plate came down out of nowhere. was pretty cool, but not sure if its worth it.
i never get **** for my lack of plate

Start a petition in your state to repeal the Front License Plate Law. There is an online petition for that very thing here in Iowa. I don't know what will come of it, but I definitely signed. Here is the link...

BTW this post is in the completely wrong section. Don't be suprised when you find it moved.

Just mount it up on your airdamn under the front. Had it on my car here, so does my gf, and have never gotten a ticket. I've had cops look at me or give me a hard time occationally, but never recieved a ticket

I just air damed mine...(see sig) havnt had any trouble yet. If i start getting tickets again i'll probably end up with this one>> http://www.ninosport.com/Altec-Remot...category=21817.
put it in the windshield. when they ask why its not moutned, tell them that they dont make your car anymore, therefore they discountiuned the plate bracket. Tell him that you thaught it was the next best thing and you feel that you shouldn't get ticketed for trying.
I looked up the law for my state (MD) recently because I was wondering about the same thing.
Don't see any reasoning sticking it up on the dash wouldn't work based on this.
At all times, each registration plate shall be:
(1) Maintained free from foreign materials, including registration plate covers as defined in § 13-411.1 of this subtitle, and in a condition to be clearly legible; and
(2) Securely fastened to the vehicle for which it is issued:

(i) In a horizontal position;
(ii) In a manner that prevents the plate from swinging; and
(iii) In a place and position to be clearly visible.

I agree. I'm pretty sure here in TX the law says it has to be at the very front of the vehicle. I think you will be alright with yours on the dash according to what you posted.
I guy I know put a front plate on. Then called the cops and "told" them someone had stolen his front liscense plate w/ the bracket. The police gave him a written car stating what had happened and that he wouldnt have to have a front plate. It worked for him!
that's probably your best bet. you could also tint the clear plastic a little - not sure if that is legal in your state, but it could be done so that you can see the plate without it standing out so much. i have a light coating of laser veil on my front plate.
