CM Show and go license plate frame

Any body ever use this on a Vette. Just wondering if it is worth buying.
Jersey requires a front and back plate.
I will go as long as I can without it ,as I have on all my other Vettes , but it only takes one freshly minted cop, without a sense of humor, to ruin the day.
Thanks,
Greg

If your talking about the fob operated fold away license holder, I've seen them. They look like a decent part. If you feel you need to run a front plate they seem ok. They're about $150, aren't they?

I looked at them on line if you look under mustang the same one is 20$ cheaper on ebay. I may get one just for the day I get nabbed for no front plate then I could press the button while hes behind me and give him the old James Bond "what are you talking about I do have a front tag"

Another option for a removeable front license plate mount is the one from Top Flight Reproductions. It's well designed and made. I just installed one and their instructions are well done and easy to follow. This one allows the front plate to be removed by just unscrewing two hidden wing nuts.

There are 2 versions one is a remote and the other a manual version. The remote version is worth it.
