I just got a ticket for not having a plate on the front bumper of my 92 Dak.
I just have one question? Where am I to mount it? There is one small hole
on my CHROME bumper, and it's just a hole not a mounting bracket or place
for a single screw to go in to. Have any of you drilled holes in your front
bumper to mount a plate? I am going to fight this. I have had the truck
for 9 years and received many a ticket for heavy foot but never for this and
all the cops have seen this before, a couple have asked and I explained they
looked and said "yeah where could you mount it? oh well" and didn't give me
a ticket. Find below the Nevada law about license plates. IT says nothing
about where it is mounted on the front of the vehicle, just that it must be
there. I have mine in the window cause it's the only place it will be
"secure" on the front of the vehicle and visible. Where am I going to put
it, strap it to my grill?
Thanks...
