I was going to say that...all of Bond's car had a rotating type plate, as he would change up the plate wherever he needed to.

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.

who needs license plates anyways :)


Hey Sean,

The price is actually for the entire mechanism, not just the motor; however, you would need to develop/design some method for allowing the license plate to swing upward after the unit extends out.

If enough of you guys want something like this, let me know. I will make them. I'm tight on money so if theres enough interest, I'll make a prototype, then price it out after I know time and materials.
