License Plates are one of the collectibles in The Sims 2. They are used for completing the collection. There are 24 to collect in total which appear every hour of the day in a different location. Your collection will be visible in the alcove in the Manager's Suite. License Plates can be sold to the Sheriff in Strangetown Jail.
Once a License Plate has been found, it can be sold right away to the Sheriff, as they serve no other purpose. Selling them doesn't affect your collection. However, they only sell for 10 simoleons, which is low considering that they're much rarer than other collectibles such as Nuclear Fuel Rods, which sell at four times the price.
Upon collecting 12 of the 24 License Plates, a new song, Combat Mode will unlock.
When you've collected all 24 of them, another new song, Razor Burn will become available.
