You don't have to have it on the front of your car. Must be visible from the front. IE Windshield. They can issue verbals all day long. The day you get a ticket for it being on your windshield will just get dismissed. I am not drilling no holes or having some shitastic aftermarket license plate holder on my car. Been driving the Z over 2 years with no issues and that is being in different states as well.

People having issues are people who probably do nothing but cause it upon themselves. IE Speeding, Illegal Lights, Sound.

if you are looking for reasons to get pulled over, warning or not then yea put it in the front windshield. looks ghetto, it scratches up your dash and will get you pulled over...

to each his own.:tup::tup:

Oh I don't do either. Only time I put the plate out is going on base. If I get pulled over Ill try to slip it up there real quick. Never had a issue.

some states now charge a fee to not run a front plate texas should do the same.they are always looking for budget cash.

Red2010z, thats's Bullish!t. I wasn't speeding nor driving recklessly and I got pulled over and cited for no front plate (YET AGAIN) on i20 in Harrison county when I was coming back from Zdayz. So no, I rly didn't bring it upon myself.

And like Ive said before, it all depends on each individual's experience but I've been cited for having it ON THE DASH, ON THE VISOR, and NO PLATE AT ALL. Because past law dictated it had to be mounted on the front bumper of the vehicle.

Now, if Anyone has info on CURRENT TEXAS FRONT LICENSE PLATE LAW, PLEASE LMK ASAP. I wanna fight this thing without having to drive back to the TX-LA border :shakes head:

It's been said before, but I personally don't want it on the dash. Heaven forbid, if I get into an accident, I don't need to have a large, thin piece of metal slicing around the interior with my squishy body.

I like the idea of charging for the ability to not be required to have the front plate. But I bet that becomes a huge issue for law enforcement. I mean, maybe 75% of those you pull over for lack of front plate probably are on record for not having it. Then again, maybe that's the point: to reduce pull-overs just for the front plate. There are probably more important things to police in the country.

Get this. http://gominigo.com/NHLPB-main.html. Have on both my Z and other car, looks and works great. Sorry for the crappy pic, all the other ones show my license plate.

red2010z 05-21-2013 09:05 AM

In 2 years I have been driving my Z never once any issues with no license plate on front. Might just be the citys. I have driven from EL Paso- to Ft Rucker AL but no issues and I seen a buttload of cops in the Houston area passing through.

red2010z 05-21-2013 09:08 AM

And like I said I don't keep the license plate in the windshield only time I put it there is going through a small city or a checkpoint or going on base. Usually it rides tucked in between the seat and center console.

Boo. Maybe they'll get stuck on redistricting for those 30 days.
