When you receive your vehicle registration renewal notice, go to your county auditor's office or other vehicle licensing subagent. Explain that you want the "Washington Lighthouses" special license plate.
When purchasing a car
If you are purchasing a car at an automobile dealership, tell them you want the lighthouse license plate. Most all automobile dealerships are license subagents and they generally prefer to order a standard plate, but insisting they order it knowing it costs $40 more will save you over a $100 in the long run should you want the plate any time later.
The new plate will cost $40 in addition to any regular licensing fees. At annual renewal, it will cost $30 additional. $28 of this goes to help Lighthouses and protect the Protect Puget Sound environment. The $28 is tax deductible as a charitable contribution.
