Go find some old men running a place and they probably wont look under the car if it is close to the ground.

i think some countys are safety only, so you wouldnt need them in one of those countys... but it has to be the county that your car is registered in. The other thing you can do, is to make friends with somebody who does inspections.

O2 sims & OBD II shouldn't be a problem, since they don't do a sniff test.
