Custom Vehicle License Plates: Difference between revisions

'''Custom [[Vehicle License Plates|vehicle license plates]]''' were first explored in [[Grand Theft Auto: Vice City|GTA Vice City]], where the [[Love Fist (vehicle)|Love Fist's limousine]] features ''LUVFIST'' plates and the [[Banshee]] ''LEONY'', the only instances of a custom license number in the game. With the use of more flexible license plate graphics in [[Grand Theft Auto: San Andreas|GTA San Andreas]], more vehicles would appear with customized license numbers. However, the custom license plates cannot be saved in garages; once a car is saved in a garage, its plate will become random.
