i got the blitz body kit installed on my car but i remembered that we removed the rear license plate lights a) they were nasty b) it was 3am and we didnt feel like cutting into the rear bumper heh
so when i get my car back in two days, anyone got advice on rear license plate lights?
i know its illegal not to have them so i need something to light up my license plate... are there any kinds of lights taht i can mount where the old ones were without cutting into the bumper? or battery powered lights taht say stick to the license plate frame?

WIll you drill a hole? You can easily mount any light there with any sort of glue or adhesive and run the wire through a hole to a power source. Would jus tneed to be a very small hole

Have you ever seen the bullet type bolts with the nuts??
My dad picked up some one time at a truck stop, and you could get them in different colors. I had thought about putting two on my truck, but I never got around to it.
It looks like a bullet head with threads on the back, and a nut. The wires are on the inside of the threaded part of it, and it is pretty small threads so the holes would probably be about 1/8 or something like that.
Different people probably have opinions about this, but I thought that it would be different.

when i got my blitz kit put on, the guy calls me and says we got a problem, the rear needs to be fabricated to fit in your licence plate lights, so i asked how much he said a extra $100 i said fuck that. So its been 4 months now driving without a light never once have 1 been pulled over hehe

does anyone know, the old license plate lights we have....im going off memory here but, arent the old ones connected to the reverse lights ? i remember detaching something that connected to 4 things but when we reconnected everything, we didnt connect 2 of them...
can i just run the license plate bolts to those wires? just do a little splicing and attaching?
