in texas it needs to be in front not exactly on the front bumper. when i road trip i just put my other plate on my dash and never get pulled over.
The law in Texas reads that it needs to be at the forward-most part of the vehicle and visable for so many feet - not applicable if a reflective windshield is 'hiding' it. I used to date a cop in Austin..

I was talking to a salesman at a Porsche dealer and he said it makes them cringe when a customer insists that they drill holes in the front bumpers and install a front license plate because "it is the law".
How many Ferraris have you seen with a front license plate? Exactly.

Can't you mount it in the "mouth" of the car (air dam)?
I live in the Midwest so I don't get really hot temps but I've never had over 3 bars on the temp gauge.
