Hey at the midwest meet allan(I think) had a front license place bracket that swung. That way when your driving it will scope under the bumper. Where can I get one of these? What is the actuall name?
Thanks in advance.....

That was me. It is actually a converted plate holder I got when I lived in Japan. It is supposed to hold the plate at an angle but I set it up to swing instead. It would actually be pretty easy to make, just take a piece of aluminum drill the holes for the mounting to the car then add 2 hinges to it and attach the plate. I will take a few upclose pics of it so you can see how its made.

Ive been thinking about this. I believe that there is a way to hook up electrical servos, like on a model airplane, and have the servo actually rotate your plate so the cops can only see the horizontal edge. It would be a toggle switch mounted somewhere near the mirror adjustment stuff in the center console.
It would need.
Aircraft landing gear servos, to make the 90* rotation
A couple dozen feet of wire
A factory switch from Nissan. Tell em its replacing a broken switch. This keeps Nosey cops from peeking in and asking about odd looking things. Like glowing toggle switches.
-------------------------------------------------------------------
Now, since I have helped you out, I need some help from anyone.
I'd really like to have a factory looking switch, in the same place I mentioned, that will turn off ALL my rear lights. Brakeing, reversing... whatever, I DONT want them on at certain times. Can someone get me a wiring diagram to a s14? And can anyone alliviate any fears of overpowering other lights if the circuit to the rear lights isn't working?

unless you mean model-aircraft landing gear servos, this doesnt sound very feasible

actually i've seen it in a domestic magazine. the rear plate can flip down by a trigger, thus, cops no see
