Show N Go License Plate Holder - Fully Powered w/Remote

1. Installed on a 2010 Challenger under the front chin spoiler to flipup on demand. Works but you must hold down either __ or [ ] button on the remote to deploy or retract the plate. You cant just hit the button once and have it go till fully up or fully retracted.

2. Because of above, when sitting inside car, you need to know how long it takes to deploy or retract the plate or you endup having it sticking straight out from car lol.

3. As it gets dirty from normal driving, the little cables slip and the guides drag more causing the plate to take longer to deploy or retract. If you live in a mostly sunny place or drive your vehicle on nice days only then this will likely not be an issue. Daily drivers beware.

4. Recommend always have it up to display your front plate and only stow it for special occasions like a show or car meet-n-greet. It just doesn't seem to have durability for daily use.

I feel like I wasted my money on this item for my CV. Anyone with a sports car already knows that they sit low. A little hit from anything and the motor stop working. Second time I hit a piece of wood on the street and it just ripped it to shreds. SO, if you plan on driving like an angel then get it. If you don't.. don't get it.

I guess for the money this is ok for what you get.

I would have been better off getting the manual one as mine broke a week after installing it.

The small wire that attaches to the plate bracket itself needs some sort of a swivel because as the plate comes out and up and then back down again it bends the wire back and forth and eventually breaks.

Bought a 2013 Corvette and, after talking to sales-dude, decided to get the "hidden license" plate bracket instread of having dealer drill holes in the nose for the stock bracket (besides, it looks ugly). Order placed with ProTrim on 9-DEC, received my kit on 11-DEC, so lovin' the fast order and shipment (yea, Protrim!). So, off to the dealer for installation.

Problems encoutered during the installation, the cables which drive the whole works became twisted and came loose. Contacted "Greg" at ALTEC (manufacturer of the kit) for a replacement on 14-DEC. He took my address and said he would "get one out right away". I sent him email with same info. One week later, 18-DEC, no replacement bracket, so, I called "Greg" again. He acted like he never heard of me (not too surprising), but said that "we don't normally do that, we usually wait for the defect part to come back and then we repair it". Was this a "failure to communicate" situation starting? So, after a bit of cajolling, "Greg" said he would get one out straight away. Today is 24-DEC and still no replacement bracket.

Here's my plan of action: I've ordered a similar product from Mid America Motorworks, a firm specializing in Corvette performance and parts. I decided on the "manual" version of the license plate bracket after reading some of the older reviews.

After speaking to my mechanic at my dealer, who's installed many of this type of hidden plate systems (this was his 14th Altec product, 100+ of other makes), in his opinion the Altec "Show-n-go" is a problematic device as he has had issues with their quality along with lack of protection for the cable system and motor. In fact, it was my mechanic who pointed me to Mid America Motorworks and the manual hidden bracket kit.

Conclusion: In my not so humble opinion, "Greg" at ALTEC Products probably should not be in customer service since he doesn't follow through and this "mechanical marvel" should only be used on "trailer queens". Otherwise, if you have $130 to waste, send $70 of it to Wounded Warriors Project and take the other $50-60 and contact Mid American Motorworks for their manual hidden license plate bracket....or not.

I am returning this POS to the supplier.

I had to return this because it projected too close to the ground when mounted on my 911. Probably great for a less low slung vehicle.
