Golden Knights fans will have to wait a little longer to show support for their team on a license plate. Officials with the Nevada Department of Motor Vehicles say the department has gone back-and-forth with the team for six months over the design of the plates. Once Knights submit a design, it will only take a few weeks for the DMV to manufacture, distribute and solicit sales for the plates. The plate’s Knights insignia, logos and messages may only take up roughly one-third of the specialty plates, leaving enough room for “Nevada” at the top and the license number. The plates will cost $37, followed by a $10 annual renewal fee.
