Does it matter? Ever consider civil disobedience?
MGW makes a very high quality rear plate holder. Check out George's site www.mgwltd.com All of his product's are top of the line and his customer service is awesome. I don't know of anyone who makes a custom front plate holder. We have a front plate law in Illinois, however 99.9% of the Viper's don't display them. I got one warning ticket so I bought(Ace hardware) 4 small suction cups and put them in the plate holes and attached it to the inside, lower center, of the windshield. Works great. Is it legal? Don't know, but I haven't been stopped again. Good luck!
For my GTS, I made mine. It cost me $6.80. It sets lower than the one that you can buy from Dodge and looks better I think. I believe the info. for a RT-10 is in there too. Good luck. Here's the link: http://vca1.viperclub.org/ubb/Forum14/HTML/003428.html
I live here in New York state which requires 2 plates. Even thought i argued for an exception due the lack of ground clearence. So i called my local pd and was advised no front plate is only a equipment violation not even a moving violation. And no local officer would ever cite me for it .. and if they did it is only a $25 fine.... but i was warned by the nice local officer that the state police will ticket you ever time if traveling on
the nys thruway...
my advice dont ruin the car !!! forget the front plate!! mine is
in the pocket behind the passenger seat just incase i park it some where for like an hour.. which hasnt happened yet...
hope this helps
avip-if you really want to put a front plate on i will send you one that i would never use,it came with the viper.in fact i have two,pay for postage & you can have it.
The plate holder I made does not require any drilling. Just buy some 1/2" weather striping for the back of the plate and the brackets. It hasn't moved since I put it on. I also have a clear cover on it. On the cover, you have to modify (Cut) the bottom middle lip so that it is flush, as it would rub on the middle facia if it were not modified.
