Stick-on and suction-cap plates were designed decades ago. They weren't built for hot Australian windscreens, night driving, or families sharing one car.
A secure adhesive windscreen mount holds the display through summer heat and daily driving. Positioning guides help line it up right, first time.
State-specific L and P inserts slide in and out in seconds. Progressing to P plates, or swapping drivers in a shared car, takes one motion.
Light and motion sensors switch the LEDs on only in low light while driving. Solar keeps the USB-C battery topped up for 32+ hours of runtime.
This is the whole idea. One display unit carries a driver from learner plates through red and green P plates, and the LEDs handle visibility on their own.
Tap the inserts to swap signs, then flick between day and night to see when the LED activates.
On the real unit, the sensors do the switching for you.
That's how fast it is on the real thing.
Both packs include two illuminated display units, mounting hardware, positioning guides and a USB-C charging cable.
For learners on supervised hours, provisional drivers, and families sharing a car between licence stages.

Shop Rideshare+Snaplates started when our co-founder became the parent of a learner driver, and got tired of plates that fell off, needed re-sticking at every swap, and disappeared after dark.
Sitting beside a learner, you realise how much depends on other drivers actually seeing that plate. When they do, they give more room, more patience, and more time. That shared understanding makes the road safer for everyone.
So we built the sign we wished existed: mounted once, visible always, and easy enough that you never skip using it.

Snaplates is designed with Australian L and P plate display requirements in mind. As requirements vary between states and territories, it's important to install and display your plates in accordance with your local road rules.
In NSW, L and P plates must be displayed externally, so Snaplates external holders are required and can be added when ordering your kit.
No. Snaplates uses built-in light and motion sensors so the LEDs automatically activate when the vehicle is in use and light levels are low. In daylight or while parked, the unit remains in ultra-low power standby, helping conserve battery power when illumination isn't needed.
Snaplates provides over 32 hours of continuous LED runtime on a full charge. In everyday use, it will typically last much longer because the LEDs only activate when light levels are low. The built-in solar panel provides ongoing top-up charging during daylight, helping extend the time between USB-C charges.
Yes. Snaplates inserts slide in and out in seconds with no tools required, making it easy to switch between L and P plates as the driver progresses from learner to provisional driving.
Snaplates is compact and designed to sit unobtrusively on the windscreen while remaining clearly visible from outside the vehicle. The included positioning guide helps you choose the correct location during installation, keeping the unit clear of the driver's normal field of view.
One unit, every licence stage, visible day and night. Shipped from Perth, Australia-wide.
