Just got my first m1028 when i took it to get it inspected he told me i needed a tag light on the rear. i was just wondering if someone could tell me the best way to do this without removing the hook. right now my tag is just in my rear window. Any and all help would be greatly appreciated.

I used a light like this and painted it green. I think they called it a map light in the generic electrical section at the auto parts store.

Here's what I didLicence plate.jpg A good bit of work but it's inset, out of the way, and not getting snagged constantly. I used (2) 1/4" thick L-brackets butted together to form the bottom and sides and a some 16-gauge plate for the back. As for lights I just used a pair of those hotrod LED lighted top bolts and spliced into the drivers side tail light harness.

100_4082.jpgThe Canadian army has plates on all vehicles , the bracket was fitted to the rear bumper support on the driver's side , that places the plate just under the rear of the truck and does not block the B/O lights or any other equipment,
