1. No

2. In the glove box, just pop in place of the key. Awesome feature that impresses the ladies.

3. Has the capability, must be activated by your dealer. Front viewing players are illegal in Texas.

4. Only have 300 miles on her, cannot wait to turn her loose.

I am happy to answer any questions.

I have a question. Has anyone mounted a front licence plate yet? If so could you post a pic? I really hate to do it, but in Germany it is required to have a front bracket or you cant even pass the inspection to register the vehicle. Im curious as to how much, if at all it detracts from the appearance of the car.

3. Mygig will play movies when vehicle is in park. if you are watching a movie and shift out of park, audio continues but video shuts off. The dealer told me this is different in some states, so yours may be different.. My car's first showing at the local ice cream shop/cruising area will be saturday, I am planning on renting the dvd of the original vanishing point and have it playing in the parking lot... am I really a grown up??? Jim Press said this car would make you younger and richer than you really are, not sure about the richer, but at the rate this week is going, my hair will be growing back by the weekend

sorry, no chance of that happening here...if someone has a close up pic of the front fascia, there are two dimples to show the installer where to DRILL the holes for the bracket. I am going to play the "sorry Officer, its a new model and it didnt come with a bracket, as soon as I get one from the dealer I will install the front plate" game as long as I can. The good thinga about being bald and 45 is that unless I do something stupid, its unlikely that an old guy like me would get pulled over for no front plate.

Oh, horrors, choodock! Your car is permanently scarred! Seriously, it looks fine with a front license plate as I assumed it would. In fact, having only lived in states where front license plates are required, cars always look odd to me when they DON'T have front plates. I guess that's why most people from states without front plates end up putting on fake plates with rebel flags, school mascots or the outline of the naked girl that actually belongs on semi-truck mudflaps.

What about double back tape? The same stuff they put side moldings on with.3M has some good stuff.Worth a try. Worst case scenario it falls off. Make an inmate happy,lose a plate!
