As someone else mentioned you can remove the tail lights and reach in behind the plate and just use conventional nylock nuts, but then you'd have to take the tail lights out to change the plate. Since most states are using "permanent" or 5-year plates now (i.e. you just put on new stickers) maybe that's a good measure of security and inducement to clean the tail light circuit boards once in a while. --- In dmcnews@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxx, "formula969" <formula969@...> wrote: > > > > Thanks for the advice.
