Default Front license plate hider

For those who like to keep the front of the car clear of anything that may cause aerodynamic instability or those who don't like complying with the Ontario HTA

The manual version

or the deluxe model.

Now who on here has the talent on here to one of these deluxe models?

Maybe I can even wire it io my sport button.

Would it not be so great to get pulled over with it hidden and then open it without the cop seeing. I can just imagine the look on the officers face when he says "you are driving without a front license plate," to which you could respond "really, it was there when I left today," and get out to find it still there.

I'm surprised Teehan hasn't jumped in :P

Make sure to check the local laws. In most places where you are required to have a plate if you have a device to hide it, it is illegal. So if you get pulled over for no plate then you flip it up the cop will just look at it, see the device then you are doubly busted.

In some areas it may be legal as long as you don't use it on the street, or are not required to have a plate in that location.

This is what it reads.


(3) The number plates for a motor vehicle, other than a motorcycle or a motor assisted bicycle, shall be attached to and exposed in a conspicuous position on the front and rear of the motor vehicle. R.R.O. 1990, Reg. 628, s. 9 (3).
