hiding the front license plate

So mounting to heavy duty servo's that have a arm coming down to one of the mounting holes for the plate. And have them pull upward. If you want take a window track and modify it to fit in that small area. And have the plate slide along the track. The Servo's can be pretty damn fast also easy to control and not spendy...like a window track motor.

Yea the window motors are a little spendy, and if I do decided to try and mass produce these I would want the cost as cheap as possible. I am unfamiliar with the term servo. I have a few ideas of how to make brackets and mounts for the plate to attach to, I just need ideas for motors I could use. The window motor is rather large and provides more power than I really need.

Alittle Google brought me to this link Whats a Servo

And to the other comment yes a Servo needs a controler but its not that hard to mimic the same input it needs to do something. And they do stop at a point and will move back to the other point. And the cost for one is 15 dollars as the site states.

Sorry I couldn't search that earlier. I was workin. I can't stop thinking about this idea. It seems so easy yet so hard. Plus I know there would be a definate demand for something like this and if it turned out well enough I could sure use an extra buck or two
