It's also quite important when doing auto-xing. At our local club one guy failed to cover his plate, photos were taken and shown online. his insurance company somehow found out about it, used the online photos as proof and cancelled his policy.
so yeah people still do believe in it's importance.

And I'm still more concerned about Mr. Insurance company knowing I'm doing some auto-xing, 1/4 mile drag strip, lapping days etc.

i just ordered the bulbs from thepartsstore and shipped the total came out to 14 dollars. i guess they lowered the price because the bulbs were only 10.

I'd like to do this mod. I understand it's part number 19224 at thepartssite for the reverse lights... what part number is it for the license plate lights?
Thanks!
Thanks!

6-LED is bright enough? From superbrightleds.com? I was hoping to order everything from thepartssite.com... does anyone know a part number of thepartssite.com I could order?

FYI:
I tried the reverse light bulbs in the license plate sockets, it really brightened up the plate but it distorted the clear lens which hold the bulb. So don't try it.
I am going with the 6 led bulbs for the plate in hopes that it looks like the new Lexus GS plate lights.
