I was wandering around the parts department at my Toyota dealer this
morning, and I saw just about the weirdest thing I've ever seen.
They have a rack with several different license plates, one of which is
called the "Autocross License Plate Lens" made an Altec Industries. For
$23.95 you can have this plain black plastic frame with clear plastic lens
to protect your license plate.
It has nothing written on it, nor any hint with respect to the origin
of its unusual name.
The Altec logo is apparently a poor ripoff of Ferrari's prancing horse
crest, too; which only made it more bizarre.
