I like to unload my camper at the CG and go for what ever reason. I will need to remove the rear plate from the camper and mount it back onto the truck. I called my local DMV and asked if I could get a third license plate for my camper. The lady said "nope, they only come in pairs".I was wontering what may be an easy fix, if any, for when I drop my camper and want to go. Maybe unscrewing the the two screws is no big deal and I am getting overly anal about making things easy. I was thinking of using my front plate (we have two here in Minnesota)but would like to hear from other to see if they have found a clever way of doing this.

You may be able to use the 1/4 turn fasteners that are used on access panels on the camper.

No you can't have a third plate. Can you imagine the potential for abuse, it would drive the state troopers nuts.:B Does one plate have an expiry decal on it? If so you would need to display it correctly.Edit: I think the quarter turn fasteners would make theft too easy.

it takes all of two minutes to swap plates even if you have a beer in one hand.

when i off load my tc,i always forget to put my plate back on my dually,sorry,distracted by san jose kicking my canucks xxx....my tc is considered cargo in bc

In Washington State the Truck camper has its own registration and plate.

License plates from truck to TC and back again, and again.

On my toad I have the electric and brake hook ups under the front license plate. So I have to remove the front plate every time I hook up and replace it when I unhook. I just ran the screws in and out of the mounted nylon nuts until they loosened up enough that I can remove them by hand, no tools required. I snug them down finger tight and they have never loosened up on me. Going on 5 years.
