2010 Camaro Retractable Front License Frame

Are you in one of those states where you are required to run a front license plate? If so, this is one accessory you cannot be without.

2010 Camaro retractable front license plate holder. With this retractable plate holder you can hide your ugly front plate within seconds, simply fold it down and stow away. If your on the road just pull it out and flip it up, no more tickets and no more hassle from the authorities. Installation requires just two small holes to be drilled under the front bumper or double sided tape. Adjust up or down in less than 3 seconds!

We currently do not have any other pictures on the Camaro except for the one below.

Here is what the frame looks like while folded down, mounted on a Corvette.

Will this work with the ground effects front lip?

See other posts for issues with this on the LS/LT trim.

This is dumb...that Helljumper guy did it with a motor. YOU CAN STILL SEE IT when its retracted. 100% waste of time and money.

Not sure how much you can see this one when its down, but on his it looks awful

Here's the link to Altec Products - http://www.altecproducts.com/

Just be mindful of the other posts on this product - if you have a LS/LT the bumper fascia has an angle that doesn't allow the "Show N Go" frame (manual or powered) to lay horizontal. I bought the manual and didn't install it for this reason. I have been working with another member on a bracket but that doesn't look like a solution either.

So far I've been running sans front plate with no issues...

Does it have to be on the front of the car, I got some suction cups from wal-mart, ones with hooks for bathroom use or whatever, I pulled the hooks out and the suction cups have a small round bit on the non suction side, stuck em through the holes in the plate and suctioned them inside the front windshield on the bottom part, passenger side when I went down to Texas. I am from Texas and it is registered there, although I live in Arkansas, which does not require front ones. I never got hassled with that. Not quite sure what the law states though

just got my retractable front plate holder from you - I have a 2LT - I don't get how I'm supposed to get the thing to work properly with the angle of the bottom of the front bumper (I don't have a problem drilling underneath, but the angle doesn't work). Your instructions (which have mustang on them GRRRRRR

) - talk about washers, but there are none included, and I think I'd have to put like 6 normal washers to get it right - then the SS screws you sent wouldn't be long enough (at least it appears that way). Give me an idea on how to get this to work please . . .

Thanks
