Default ORV Permit Placement?

Where do you guys who have Michigan ORV permits place them on your JK's?

Thanks!

I see most on the rear bumper, tail gate or back window. They used to say where to put them on the back of the sticker.

Thanks for the ideas. The window is kind of out because I have two different ones (hard top and soft top) and the possibility of no window. I don't really want to stick it to the painted surface but am afraid it won't stay on the stock bumper.

Something I thought about is attaching it to a separate sheet of metal that is attached with the license plate but I am afraid it might grow legs or Michigan might not like portability of that.

Any other thoughts?

What I had recommended doing to a few of the guys who joined me on our Drummond Island trip was to stick the sticker to a magnet and cut the magnet around the sticker. Just put it on while you're wheeling and remove it when you're not. Avoids all the mess!

Did anyone take your suggestion? Seems like a good idea. It is conceivable that it could get brushed off but you should be able to find a spot that has protection provided by the bumper and the spare tire.

Thanks, I will have to think about that one some more.

We put ours on the flat spot of the rear tire carrier for the Poison Spyder carrier.

I'll have to see what my wife thinks about spending $1275 for an ORV sticker mount. It does look like it is made for it.

I wouldn't worry about sticker theft. They are numbered and can be tracked. That would be as bright as stealing my Ipass.

After thought.......why not just tape it to the inside of window. Swap tops just move sticker. Or just keep it in your wallet and just explain issue if caught.

I've had mine on my stock bumper for the last couple years. It stays on just fine and I can peel it off without much residue when I out the next years on.
