... at the spit by a crotch rocket.

He sed he pulled me over for my license plate.

he had a good look around the car and thats all he mentioned... surprisingly!

can anyone suggest a "LEGAL" side mount so cameras can see it from BOTH sides of the road???

all it needs is to be parallel with the front of the car. we can have it side mounted as long as its visible from both sides. all i really need to do is shave my bracket down to contour the car better. =D

So were you defected? Did the copper mention why is was deemed illegal?

cops haven't said anything bad about mine, I've even had a good comment about it from a cop

I'll just use the "alfa romeo" argument if they try pick at it, but theres other things they can defect me for anyway..

take the plate off - slap him across the head with it, and say "did you see it NOW" :twisted: :twisted:

better not do that

END RESULT:

changed the angle of my license plate.

I just packed the bracket i have out with gal washers and a coach bolt.

Problem was it is sooooo far forward on one side it was exposed on the back so i had to make a lil enclosure outta ply haha.
