Finding the perfect vanity license plate (also known as a personalized plate) can be difficult. DMVs often have slow search tools, and popular combinations like "FAST", "COOL", or specific names are frequently taken.
The PLATES tool allows you to:
- Instantly check availability for personalized plates in Idaho and California.
- Track specific plate combinations over time.
- Visualize how the text looks on a simulated license plate.
Tips for Personalized Plates
If your first choice is taken, try using numbers in place of letters (e.g., "E" to "3", "A" to "4", "S" to "5"). You can also try phonetic spellings. Remember that DMVs reject plates that are considered offensive or misleading.
