Do you want to see a side view of the chrome frame? It won't show any more than the pictures above. Or are you asking for a side view showing how the plate is attached to the frame? It looks much like a picture in a glass frame with the license plate being the picture.

The old Cal plate shown in the pic is expired and never even registered to the Lex. I'm no fool to show my real WA state plate (without stickers) .

Do some research before you guys call someone out on authnecity! (and if that's not what you were doing, disregard my last statement). The product is 3M privacy film...a liquid crystal film between two pieces of glass, originally made for office and home windows for privacy at the touch of a button. In this case it is between two pieces of plexiglas....extremely tricky to do! Not only can the film not get wet (also sensitive to glue) but the transformer is pretty tricky...the film is clear only when current is running through it so it puts a drain on the battery...the transformer is pretty complex to keep all of it efficient. I think VideoNavi's mod is extremely unique.....way to go man!

Red face im not really feeling it?

i thought it was all a joke. But, as far as calling people out ? i wouldnt call it that. anything that disapears before your eyes will always be questioned on authenticity. i never heard of 3m electrosonic plasma, or whatever its called.it pulls juice just to keep it clear. no good.

I dont know, i guess i dont rob banks or launch rockets out of my headlights so theres no need to hide my numbers. seems like a whole lot of trouble for a not very useful thing? just my 2 cents, im rigid i guess? props to 3m for inventing the technology. good luck...

Ah...it just sounded like you were questioning or ridiculing... anyways...what I found the point to be was that it was an unique mod. That's all.... on the juice that it pulls though...your leakage current on a battery though is about 30 ma I believe... this system with an efficient converter only will draw 30ma from a 12V source...so it's not a problem. VideoNavi said he's ran it a year...no problems

Well I don't rob banks or shoot rockets out my butt at drivers that cut me off, but this would be very useful in DC and Chicago for people like me who are very impatient at night. I hate waiting at red lights for 4 hours when there is no one on the streets but me, and in both cities, they use photography to capture people who run red lights.

Also, this would be a great item if it changed my plate numbers when I park my car. I got 2 tickets a couple days ago for parking with my blinkers at a corner while I ran upstairs to grab something, and the other ticket was for not having a front plate (my car came with no front plate bracket).
