Full license plate hider installation guide: 15 to 25 minutes, straightforward installation on most vehicles.
All you need is a screwdriver. Mount the retractable frame to your existing front or rear plate bolts, route the wire into the cabin, and plug into your 12V cigarette lighter. No permanent modifications to your plate area.
Remove your existing plate with a standard screwdriver. Bolt the PlateVanish frame directly onto your factory plate holes using the included hardware. It mounts straight onto your existing plate bolt holes.
Run the included wire from the frame to the control box. The longest wire is for the rear plate, slightly shorter for the front (double kit only). The control box sits discreetly inside your vehicle.
The control box plugs into your 12V cigarette lighter port. To get the wire cleanly into the cabin, most people route it through their trunk light opening. On supported vehicles you can pass it through the trunk light opening. If yours doesn't have one, a small hole through the bumper keeps it tidy. Prefer no cigarette lighter? Request our direct battery connection wire. The LED indicator inside shows plate status at a glance.
The remote comes pre-paired. One button press and your curtain, flipper, blackout, or fogger deploys instantly. Up to 50 metres of remote range. Ready for car shows, car meets, track days & photo shoots.
Everything you need to know about PlateVanish stealth plate systems, covering legality, installation, and vehicle compatibility.
PlateVanish systems are designed exclusively for off-road use only: car shows, track events, and photo shoots. When the curtain or flipper is not activated, your license plate is completely visible and unobstructed. Laws regarding license plate concealment vary by state and country. Always verify your local vehicle regulations before use. PlateVanish will not be held responsible for any legal consequences arising from misuse on public roads.
A license plate flipper is a motorized device that rotates your license plate 180° using an electric hinge mechanism, activated by a remote control from up to 50 metres away. When flipped, the back of the plate faces outward, covering the visible plate face. PlateVanish electric license plate flippers deploy in approximately 2 seconds and are built for car shows, photo shoots, and off-road use. They mount to your existing plate bolt holes and plug into a 12V cigarette lighter. No permanent modifications required.
A blackout license plate cover uses an LCD or PDLC panel that switches electronically from transparent to fully opaque. Instantly, silently, no moving parts. The PlateVanish blackout plate cover activates via remote control in under one second and is IP65-rated waterproof. It's the most discreet plate cover system available, ideal for show cars, track builds, and automotive photography where a clean, mechanical aesthetic is important.
Vanish plates (also called stealth plates, disappearing license plates, or plate hiders) refer to any remote-controlled system that covers or conceals a license plate on demand. PlateVanish offers five vanish plate technologies: motorized curtains, electric plate flippers, blackout covers, PDLC foggers, and retractable hideaway systems. All are remote-activated from up to 50 metres and designed for car shows, car meets, off-road use, and automotive photography.
A plate curtain (also called a hideaway plate cover or retractable plate hider) slides a black panel down over the face of the plate in under 2 seconds. Minimal clearance required,, ideal for modern vehicles with tight bumpers. A plate flipper rotates the plate 180 degrees using a motorized hinge, which requires more rear clearance. A blackout plate uses an LCD panel that switches from transparent to fully opaque electronically. A plate fogger creates a visual distortion over the plate using a PDLC privacy film. All five systems are electric, remote-controlled from up to 50 meters. Perfect for car shows, car meets, track days, and photo shoots.
Every PlateVanish kit includes exact frame dimensions on the product page. The curtain and flipper systems are designed for standard USA and Canada front or rear license plates (300mm x 150mm / 12" x 6"). Compatible with most makes and models, though slight modifications may be needed for some vehicles with rear cameras or tight bumper designs. Check the frame depth (25mm / 1") against your plate recess before ordering. We ship to 28 countries. See full country compatibility on each product page.
Most customers complete installation in 15 to 25 minutes. You only need a standard screwdriver. Mount the frame to your existing plate bolt holes, run the wire to the control box, and plug into your 12V cigarette lighter. No permanent modifications to your vehicle. The LED indicator light inside your cabin shows whether the plate is covered or visible. You're done.
Every PlateVanish kit includes a 1-year warranty from the date of receipt, covering motor failures and mechanical defects. If your unit develops a fault that isn't the result of physical misuse or user error, we replace it. No questions asked. Unlike generic Amazon alternatives that offer 30 days or nothing at all, PlateVanish stands behind every kit sold.
