Got a warning for this today.Told the officer that my car didn't have the bracket on it when I bought the car and GM has diccotinued the bracket.I also told him I was looking for one in the junk yards but still have not found a good one yet.
He told to get one on as soon as I found one because it was the law to have one on there.Like I didn't know that already

Here's what I found about the "License plate law." From what I understand, after September 1, 2007 vehicles will only be required to display a license plate at the rear of the vehicle. Hope this helps...
