Member crwallace1 says he made one that can be accessed without bumper removal. His is attached via magnets with an operating temp of up to 176 degrees farenheit. Any thoughts on how well this method would work? Are the magnet temps an issue? If it woks fine, his solution would be great for ease of access.

DUDE....think about it. You got a $30,000 sports car and you are gonna roll around town with your plate stuck to your cooler? no no no no no!

1. Go to Lowes
2. Get industrial velcro
3. Get gloss black spray pain
4. Get a 1'x1' sheet of 1/16 aluminum
5. If you don't have tin snips then buy a pair, and a tape measurer too.

Its really easy, Im a bit slow but if I can do it, I have faith that others can too.

I was referring to crwallace's magnetic blocker solution. My license plate idea was just saying what if I placed my plate to the the side like a lot of people already do IN FRONT, not inside, and whether or not that would help at all.
