I think the new TRANSPORTER Audi in the second one also did the same...not sure. but...yes someone needs to make this. For parking and for tickets.   Back to top   Posted: Mon Mar 10, 2008 8:44 pm fu03steve Reputation ***** Joined: 29 Sep 2007 Posts: 3399 Location: Alta Loma 1495.66 Points Check out  My Gallery My Vehicle: that would be sweet if they have those kits... i would park in the red line and then flip it to irving's plate   Back to top   Posted: Tue Mar 11, 2008 12:35 pm aren040 Moderator Joined: 02 Mar 2007 Posts: 4918 Location: Southern California 5416.71 Points Check out  My Gallery My Vehicle: I don't imagine it would be too hard to make. The only pain would be the placement and mounting. Other than that you could wire it properly to automatically pop out when you turn off the car. Kind of like the folding side mirror option that some cars have. -aren   Back to top   Posted: Tue Mar 11, 2008 12:40 pm sapple89 Reputation **** Joined: 11 Feb 2007 Posts: 755 Location: los angeles 338.57 Points Check out  My Gallery My Vehicle: 2007 Porsche Cayman i was thinking about doing it till i saw the motor is $400 who needs license plates anyways   Back to top   Posted: Tue Mar 11, 2008 1:06 pm blacknight Moderator Joined: 30 Sep 2003 Posts: 5077 Location: Hollywood, CA 3815.74 Points Check out  My Gallery My Vehicle: 2002 Porsche 911 sapple89 wrote: who needs license plates anyways You would need one if you're going to parking on public street.

Its not like you need to move mountains, you just need to move a plate that is under a pound. -aren   Back to top   Posted: Tue Mar 11, 2008 4:42 pm AsianImage Reputation **** Joined: 10 Dec 2006 Posts: 951 Location: South Pasadena 606.01 Points Check out  My Gallery My Vehicle: 1985 Mazda RX-7 im telling you...someone needs to make this...people would pay like $200 for it...$199 + shipping.
