Prescribe, by regulation, a manner and form for submitting a written request pursuant to subsection 1.

4.

A person who requests license plates pursuant to this section may keep the license plates which are registered to him or her at the time of the request if the license plates requested contain the same letters and numbers as the license plates which are registered to the person at the time of the request.

5.

License plates issued pursuant to this section which were manufactured on or after January 1, 1982, and before June 30, 2015, are not subject to reissue pursuant to subsection 2 of NRS 482.265.
