Title: rear number plate light Post by: Phantom on August 16, 2004, 03:29:36 AM G'day all,
Can any one tell me(or a pic) how the globe mounts to the rear bumper to illuminate the rego plate? Cheers Rusty Title: Re: rear number plate light Post by: mickusmickus on August 16, 2004, 06:17:28 AM Rusty,
I did my number plate light not so long ago. I too was not sure exactly how to mount it but I improvised. I made a 'U' shaped bracket with two flat bits on each end out of steel. Then i screwed it into the holes provided by the number plate holder. The number plate light sat nicely into the bracket and is protected by the chrome number plate surround works a treat.

As indicated by Mickus, there is a bracket which mounts in the two holes on the number plate surround using two rubber mounts. One side has a piece of brass strip which is your earth to the body via the bumper. The bracket has a hole in it into which sits the light body, the same set up as a dash light. Hopefully one of the more picture friendly guys might take a piccy for you. Colin Title: Re: rear number plate light Post by: Phantom on August 17, 2004, 04:07:22 AM Thanks for your help guys
