WTB LED Plate Light!

Hey guys!

Does anyone know of a sponsor or.. cough NON SPONSOR cough...
That has LED bars/boards for the license plate light that plugs right in or is easy to install..

I bought a LED bulb but once I put it into the bulb housing it dims it down too much. I've heard that Brian has them but there wasn't enough info on them so I couldn't tell.

Thanks!

I eBay'd mine, its pretty bright, and I have them in all the corner markers too (they are tinted so still dim, I just don't want them going out randomly).

There is a site that has them specifically for our cars and it's a liquid sealed board with a plug and play end on it. I don't think you will ever find one as nice as that, let alone designed for our f-bodies.

Lol you guys are CRAZY! last thing i want is people to have a better view at my license plate at night.

I will admit it looks cool and with a vanity plate would be awesome. Any car with hids should have this to match.

Yeah, about that. I've got better sockets and all that now, not that I'm making them to sell or anything. I think Chris ('96 Z28SS) and I might make a limited batch for the local crowd with the new design, but that will be after school starts back up. The SMD LEDs have a much better spread and fill the plate very cleanly. I just want to finalize the bracket, reflector, and maybe develop a housing for a little more protection and asthetics before I decide to pump a few of these out. It cost me about $10 to make that setup andget it the way it is now, so I'm happy.

Like everyone else said, talk to Brian he has good stuff.
