    I was wondering if there is a version of the IV 2012 ford taurus that has the fixed license plate readers, The lights next to the light bar are not supposed to flash but they are set to flash when you turn on the secondary lights in game. Is there a fixed version where the license plate readers don't light up or turn on at all like in real life? It sucks having a cool mod with cool skins but lights where they are not supposed to be, feels so unrealistic.

    Er...what?
    I mean, they're not intended to be plate readers? They are ACTUALLY lights. At least thats what I know.

    I agree with Dhruv, those were not meant to be ALPRs, they are just intersection lights.

    Thats not possible, afaik. I mean he's not an idiot (no offence to Bugz here). He even made me a private one and that one had the similar lights too. Plus, looking at them doesn't make one feel they were ever meant to be ALPRs.

    They are NOT ALPRs, they are clearly lights on bugs model. I had a look at the real car its modeled after(Link below) and it does look like they could be alprs on the real car. But like everyone has been saying they are meant to be lights on bugs car, if they werent they wouldn't light up

    I saw the police interceptors at the chicago auto show and when I asked the ford rep weather they where lights or license plate readers he said they are license plate readers used to aid police in catching auto thieves and people who like stealing other people's tags. He even showed me the view from the MDT on the car, there was no plates around for it to read but I was able to see that there where 4 squares on the screen, 1 for each of the readers
