Retractable License Plate

Just wanted to get some opinions. It's about $100 difference installed. Should I get the manual one or the motorized retractable license plate holder? I like the concept, just wondering if I should save my $ or just spend the extra and be able to walk away and retract or have it come out as I'm walking away. Thoughts?

Get the motorized one, one day I was getting pulled over, as I saw him hit the blue lights, I hit my button..................sure enough, he was pulling me over for no front plate. I wish I could've recorded the look on his face when he saw that I all of sudden had one..........LMAO..........it was awesome!

Ah, avoiding the no front plate ticket. Yea, go with the motorized one. Cop won't let you get out and get your plate set up. He'll just ticket you if it's not there.

Best option, is to live somewhere that doesn't require a front plate. At least Louisiana politics didn't screw up that one for us. :/

That looks good. I saw that a while back. Just not sure the highway cops will be looking for that here in NY. I know someone who's been driving for months with no front plate and nothing's happened. Not saying I'll have that luck, but maybe it's not worth the extra $$$. Looks cooler to have it motorized though...
