They're Ok. I have never liked the attention they bring on a DD but on the vette I am considering one myself.

Except OU812 was released in 1988. Did you mean ON a 1984 Vette? Or the Van Halen album 1984? Which would make no sense on a vette of any year, since everyone would assume the driver meant the year of the car.

Oh hell....now even I'm confused. :o

Don't forget about 5150 somewhere between those two. That would make a cool plate on.....wait a minute

yeah I know what you mean about being confused, to tell you the truth I am too! Must just be a senior moment on my part. But wasn't 1988 Van Hagar?

1984 was DLR...and the last album with him. 5150 was the first Hagar, then OU812.

I wonder if anyone in Florida got this for a plate "stop me"

LOL I can see it now, A young punk with a bright yellow vette with that as his plate and a line of cops waiting to write him a citation.

Hang on this remind me of something.
