Help me hunt down the mfg of this sweet gadget!
 
Recently slapped on some amuse on the bae. :happydance:

Need a Show n Go (REMOTE CONTROLLED!) plate.

Particularly interested in the following design which I found two examples of on Youtube, but no vendors selling them:

The difference between the ones you linked and the one Im talking about in the OP is:

1. It cannot go UNDER the car (way too low for that)
2. It mustnt be facing downward and flip up to reveal itself - it needs to merely slide up and down (into the upper part of the bumper).

I'm almost positive given the similarity of those two videos that it was a ready-made sold-by-vendor setup, and not a custom made mechanism. It looks like both guys got it from the same place.

Hopefully someone has some info on this :ughdance:

Can't it be mounted up side down so it flips up inside the bumper instead of under the bumper?

Thank You cooltoy for the suggestion.

It in fact does look like thats the way they installed it for the Amuse. :ugh2:

My work blocks most pictures, so I could not see it in the DYI.

This is the product used in the DIY post:

Why not get the Stillen license plate adapter that goes on the towhook? You can easily remove it for shows and put it back on for the street.

The Amazon people that bought it say it works but... not for long

cooltoy 07-22-2014 10:26 PM

I am pretty sure it is the one on Amazon. If you look at the video with the blue Amuse, the remote control is the same as the one in the Amazon kit.

I don't think there would be as many issues with this kt as described by the people on Amazon, as it wil be hidden in the bumper and more protected. You just have to prevent the plate from flipping over, and insure it only travels up and down. Block the flip motion.
