    I'm using some lights like these in my roll pan:

    I finally got around to modding some led's to put in them & they look a lot better now.
    Seems like I got them from WallyWorld.

    I've seen some new bolt style lights that look pretty cool, but they look like they'd need to be re-wired every time you remove the plate.

    Something like this...

    They look like they just go through the plate & bolt into the bumper, but the way they're made it looks like you'd need to disconnect the wiring every time you changed plates. I guess you could add on some small quick connectors to make it a little easier, but they'd have to be small enough to fit through the holes in the plate.

    yeah something like that would work or even a light with a bracket, there is just so many kinds out there ranging in price from 15-85

    AGreager18 ,
    Old post but what did you do for Plate Lights ?

    My rear bumper just got here, no plate light hole yet.
    Thinking four of those Bolt Lights two on each side, not through the plate but pushed to the edges more, out of the way !

    I made the top bolt holes on the plate slightly bigger and just got 2 boltlights/leds from A&A and put them through there.
