Y'all hearing anything about this where you live? License plate thefts on the rise?

What are these special screws that you can buy for license plates?

Do we need an option to easily remove them every time we park?

They're probably just torx bit screws lol
Drugs and Autozone should never be the first step to customizing your ride.

You can buy a set of security torx keys at HF for $7. The criminals have them too...

If criminals are walking around with security torx bits. Then let them have the license plate.

We need plate frames now that let us remove the plate like we are just removing a hang tag. That's the world we live in now.

If you are old enough you can remember taking a razor blade and putting slices in the registration stickers that used to go on the license plate to prevent easy theft before they moved to the windshield.

Doesn't seem to be a thing here in SC. I don't know anyone that's had that problem.
