In Texas, it's required by law. My friend had his in his window like you and still got a ticket.

In Cali your required to have one. THe only time i got in trouble for it was when i got a parking ticket. DUmb meter maid gave me another ticket for not having a plate. It was MORE than the parking ticket itself!

When I bought my car from Gardena Honda (Gardena, CA) in Oct 2002 the cocksucking the cocksucking salesperson told me since there were no liscense plate holes it was not required. So a year goes by and I start getting $25 parking tickets in West Hollywood, of course I couldnt find my font liscense plate because I moved and put a bunch of **** in storage...finally I found it and put in the window. I stopped getting parking tickets but got pulled over by a motorcycle cop and got another ticket so I just went and screwed the bitch in. Moral...**** Gardena Honda lying bitches.

I hate you....j/k

CA requires a front plate regardless of having holes and whatnot. I didn't put my front plate on and I've been ok so far.
