It's the license plate from Corwin's car.

Here's the badge for Sunrise Motorworks, Salusia's premier manufacturers of combat limousines and special agent vehicles since... well, since a long time.

Sunrise Motorworks: Our hood emblems are tougher than your car.

I can almost hear merc headhunters having an impromptu team radio conference upon noticing the brightly-colored badge on their mark's limo.

"Shit! No dice, it's one of those Salusian jobs, boys. These damn flashlights aren't gonna cut it. *tell* me one of you is packing a tank mine, or maybe a particle-beam rifle..."

I bet if you googled "BDR 529" you'd find all kinds of cool stuff. Mind you, that's only a guess. :)

As an extra level of referentialness, that grey Skyline of Gryphon's (the one from Locard's Exchange) has BRD 529. :)

(Vlad the Impala's is even more obscure: RTB 303.)

And, being a dip, I hadn't thought of asking the true wonder of the modern age.

Thanks!

RTB 303? Hmm, the only reference I can find that might be relevant is the Roland TB-303 Bass Line synthesizer. Is that what you're referring to, or is it more obscure than that?

Not sure how I managed to miss this post in such a short thread, but I just came in here to look at the license plate again and noticed it, so, yes, you are correct. I was, indeed, referring to the TB-303. It (and its companion drum machine, the classic TR-808) are always to be found someplace in Kate's stack of antique equipment at Art gigs.
