Specialty plates ... have 'em?
A few months ago, I was browing the IL Secretary of State website and discovered that IL has a specialty license plate that features/celebrates Route 66. Since then, I've been considering switching to these plates on all 5 of my Monte Carlos.
But, I haven't yet switched because of the increase cost of the plates [though, on the plus side of that, a portion of the fee supports the Illinois Route 66 Heritage Project]. I'm also not happy that the letter/number combinations are limited (i.e. 2 letters, 2 numbers ... or ... 3 letters, 1 number), and I haven't been able to come up with some good combinations....
However, thus far, I've only seen a handful (if that) of cars with the Route 66 plates ... it'd be neat to have something that is not seen much in these parts.
So ... has anyone switched to a specialty plate your state offers? If so, are you happy with them/glad you did?

`Hi `Ian, good choice for your Monte's name.
Do you have to have both front & read plates ?
Florida requires only the rear plate.
Post some pic's of your plates on your Monte when you get them `ok.
Peace, `Space : )

What do you think Space? Should I pay an extra bankroll to get these?
