Why would someone steel an antenna top?! LOL wow.

I only have Purdue plates on my cars (I know that will surprise many)

Years back when I owned my Jetta, I had Mickey ears on the antenna and they were stolen! I felt so violated! I allow no stickers of any kind on my Mustang (just wouldn't be right) and on my everyday car, my Sante Fe, at Christmas time, I put the Mickey antenna topper that's like an ornament. It has a loop on the top, so I'm able to loop a rubber band through there and hang it on my rear view mirror! This way, no way can steal it!

[quote="Amy"]My car sports "DIZNEE" and I got my Mom "F1GMENT" It is only $15 extra per year in Michigan for personalized plates. Well worth it since it makes me smile every time I see them.

Where in MI I think I have seen your moms plate.

I personally think the Mustang could use a little bit of the mouse in it

It is terrible that people have started to steal the Mickey antenna topper. I feel bad for everybody who has lost their ears.

I had a mouse topper that I loved, but then I bought a Subaru. I didn't even notice that it had no antenna until I tried to transfer the mouse topper. I was actually sad....now I'll have to get a plate frame or something the next time I go.

Now that I look at it, I think I mistyped it...MCKEMSE might have been more like it...we went past it too quickly but it stood out like a sore thumb to me

Mamabaminjamin - we're in southwestern Michigan, land of snow and arctic chill

Since you are located in Colorado according to your profile stamp, were you passing thru Michigan lately?

MmeLeota - I love looking at people's plates and seeing what they have thought of - one of the best I can remember right now was L8R G8R on a vette. Anything related to Disney gets a honk and a wave if I can do it without disrupting traffic

I must say I am surprised more of my fellow subsonic's don't have more disney-fied cars. I actually want to find a good license plate frame but haven't found any online. Looking forward to finding one at one of the parks sometime in the future.

That is on the east side of the state right? You might have seen us at some point I suppose. We've had the plates for about 2 years.

I don't recall ever seeing a customized plate that is a hidden Disney message. However, Disney license plate frames are pretty common. I usually will see at least one a week on the road IF I paid attention.

So we had to break down and buy a new *read new to us* car. Now my DH wants to put personalized plates on it but we're having a hard time deciding on what it should be...any suggestions?
