Well just like the title says has anyone ever tried or have gotten a replacement window tag. I have one missing on my 914 and have no clue where it went. (IMG:style_emoticons/default/headbang.gif)
I think I'll try my non friendly Porsche dealer here for advice but I have a feeling how it's going to end. If someone has done this in the past please let me know. TIA, Luke |

Mine doesn't have a windshield tag either. The previous owner had no trouble licensing it in CA. I had no trouble in NV. The metal tag in the front trunk satisfied the DMV. I don't see a reason to worry about it.

(IMG:style_emoticons/default/dry.gif) Just like SirAndy said.. In NY it must be visible to law enforcement members or get a ticket , this I know. It's for my 6 so I want it on anyway. |
