A question for those of you with a retractable license plate kit

I'm looking into buying the Altec Show N Go retractable license plate kit. It comes with a wireless fob to control the kit but I'm wondering if it would be possible to hardwire it to a toggle switch so I can control it from that inside my car? thanks

WTF would you need to retract the legal identification of your car from inside the vehicle?

Various reasons. There's some other models with a much higher price tag that I'm not willing to fork the cash out for that has a physical switch included in their kit, so I don't see why this question would be WTF worthy to try and do the same on a cheaper kit.

Makes it a little harder for the NSA to track your movements.
