Good idea. It is now 'stuck'.

Remember that local 'traficos' do not have the authority to ask for your immigration documents or the importation documents for your vehicle. Their only authority is with traffic matters.
Federales may as to see either of those documents.
Aduana may ask to see the importation documents.
Immigration may ask to see your immigration documents.
There is little 'cross-over' and less cooperation between agencies.
