Video Transcript for Optronics Trailer License Plate Mount Bracket Installation

Today we're going to show you Optronics Trailer License Plate Mount Bracket, part number LP15SB. First off, with our bracket this is an all-metal construction. In its typical application, this license bracket is designed to sit behind the bracket that holds your taillight in place. In this case, we're on the driver's side or left-hand side. Typically they will line up with the studs on the lights. You can mount this either way you'd like, but typically you want this underneath so it sticks underneath the light on the bottom for the license plate. Let's go ahead and install it. Pretty simply.

Let's go ahead and remove these two nuts. Most of the time it's going to be a 7/16. In certain situations, it won't fit like this, so you can flip it around and install it that way as well. Of course, we realize that not as much light will go onto your license plate, but it will still work just fine. Then you can go ahead and install your license plate; 1/4" hardware will work just fine for that.

This hardware does not come with it as well. Since it is recessed inaudible 00:01:14 back, let's go ahead and turn off the lights and try it out and see how the trailer light illuminates the license plate. Even though it's recessed, it's still doing its job. That will finish it for a Optronics Trailer License Plate Mount Bracket, part number LP15SB. .

Trailer License Plate Mount Bracket, Heavy Duty Zinc Steel - LP15SB

Average Customer Rating:  4.9 out of 5 stars   (406 Customer Reviews)


by:

I received my license plate brackets yesterday. I installed one of them on my boat trailer this morning. Installation was easy and it looks great. The license plate brackets are heavy duty and seem to be well manufactured. In the past, I have purchased lighter metal brackets and polymer brackets. Both of these types of brackets finally breakover a period of time and usage. Thanks for having a superior license plate bracket!



by:

Sturdy material, but not completely universal. On my Carson trailer, I had to flip the bracket backwards since the indentation on the bracket come down far enough to allow for the trailer light box. Also, the hole line up tonattach to the light box was just off enough I had to force the bracket on. However, once I installed it, it was solid and so don’t fear it will come off on its own.



by:

Are you kidding? This metal license plate mount is rock solid and under $2. The holes are set up perfectly to fit the mounting bolts on my driver side trailer light and the position of the license plate when mounted allows it to be lit by the clear lens on the bottom of the trailer light when the running lights are on. Also, the bracket allows the mounted license plate (and frame) to just clear the rail of the flat bed trailer itself. Yeah, it's a perfect fit. Thanks, trailer!!



by:

I think you will find these photos show a unique installation of your metal trailer license plate holder.
My Yamaha golf cart is street legal which requires a license plate. You will see in close up photo that the holder is used up side down for a custom fit.
Couldn't be happier. The plastic holder was not stiff enough so your holder is perfect.



by:

I’ve been very happy with everything I’ve purchased from trailer!



by:

I purchased two tag license frames, one for my boat trailer and the other for my trash/hauling trailer. Both trailers had plastic license holder frames and one broke on rough surface.

It has been fine. I put on my boat trailer since the original was plastic. There are many items available.

Great product at a great price. Took five minutes to install.

Mike, where did you get your old black plastic bracket that broke? I had the exact same one and I liked it and it worked for me. I cant find a suitable replacement and would like another one just like this. Thanks!

You might check out the Optronics # LP10SB. This might suit your needs.

This part was perfect for my liscense plate for my trailer . Thanks

Not to good plate came undone and flew off my trailer . Had to buy another liscense plate .



by:

Much better than the plastic one that came with the lights on the trailer.

holding up just fine keeps license plate flatter,thanks.



by:

Easy ordering system. Fantastic tracking and fast delivery. Product is as described and in excellent condition.



by:

Great well made product just as advertised. No more lost license plates due to cheap plastic brackets. This metal bracket looks like it's going to last a a life time!



by:

My trailer came with a plastic plate holder. It was very flimsy. This stiffened it up enough that the plate doesn't flap in the wind anymore



by:

Old bracket was plastic and easily broke off. I Ordered a metal one from etrailer at a great price. I painted mine with some extra plasti dip I had laying around and riveted it where the old one was and it's better than new!



by:

Awesome fit!

Frank

Awesome no complaints here Guys



by:

Made out of metal better than plastic



by:

I like the license plate mount, because it's heave metal and won't bend at the boat ramp like the others.



by:

better than the cheap plastic bracket that came with trailer.



by:

I received the license plate bracket 2,days early ,which I like. now all I have to do is repaint the wheel fenders and I can mount the bracket then I will be ready to go. I went with the metel unit because I have found that most BOX STORE plastic holders do not hold up and break. more to follow when I get done.

3/29/2018

The bracket I have found is the best think since apple pie. Using the trailer both local and highway the bracket does not move and holds the plate very secure .all my plate brackets are going to be metel from now on.



by:

This is a solid product and does exactly what it claims it will do. Much better than the one that came on my boat trailer. This will be the last one I buy as it will last forever. Yes I used loctite when I put it on. Shipping was quick and life is good. Thank you etrailer.

Mart

It is a solid mount. No problems. Great product



by:

The materials are sturdy however, I'm a bit worried how well the horizontal bar holding the license plate onto the mounting bracket is attached. I wouldn't trust that it will hold up to much use but can be corrected by adding a couple of bolts and nuts just in case the attachment point doesn't hold up.



by:

This replaces the flimsy plastic licence plate bracket that comes with most trailer loght kits. It firmly and securely holds the plate.

James

Still great looking, no corrosion or breakage



by:

Outstanding.



by:

All metal license plate bracket was excellent. I was having a hard time keeping up with license plates . The plastic ones break so easy , and I would loose my plates. This one looks very good and I think it will solve my problem. Thanks.

  • Would the Optronics Trailer License Plate Bracket part # LP15SB Replace a Wesbar 003201 Bracket
    The Wesbar license plate bracket part number 003201 that you referenced is a universal license plate bracket just like the Optronics Trailer License Plate Bracket part # LP15SB. To see if the mounting holes would line up check out the dimension picture I attached. If the dimensions don't match up you could still make the bracket work pretty easily.

  • Recommendation for a License Plate Bracket for a Small Cargo Trailer
    I believe I have just the right license plate bracket for you. Take a look at the Trailer License Plate Mount Bracket, # LP15SB. It is just a little over 8 inches long at 8-7/16 inches. It is 4 inches tall. The center to center distance between the center slotted holes is 2-1/4 inches but can be 2-3/4 inches apart at the outside edges. The top most set of holes are 2 inches apart on center. I have included a picture showing the dimensions for you.

  • How to Mount Bike Carrier Without Obstructing Rear License Plate from View
    In many states if your rear license plate is obstructed from view by a bike rack, luggage rack or a similar device, a vehicle owner has the option to obtain a temporary license plate. This third license plate is a paper document that is placed on the interior of the vehicle's rear window in a manner clearly visible from the outside of the vehicle, but doesn't obstruct the driver's view out of the rear window. Another option is to use the bike rack you want to use and move the plate to...

  • Replacement License Plate Bracket for Triton Jet Ski Trailer
    A broken plastic license plate holder is unlikely to be repairable so you'll probably be best served replacing it with a sturdier corrosion-resistant unit like # CE26053A which is aluminum. It may be necessary to break off the remaining plastic pieces and to drill holes for mounting hardware. You do not want to run your winch strap over the trailer's bow roller. It uses the secondary roller underneath to allow the trailer bow roller to properly contact the hull without interference. If...

  • Dimensions of the Optronics # LP15SB
    The Trailer License Plate Mount Bracket, Heavy Duty Zinc Steel # LP15SB is 1/16 inch thick. That makes it 16 gauge sheet metal. I've attached a photo with other dimensions that will most likely be helpful as well.

  • Is a License Plate Relocation Bracket Required when Using a Trailer Hitch Mount Cargo Carrier
    If the cargo loaded on the etrailer Cargo carrier # e98874 come up to the bottom of the license plate on your 2014 Mazda CX-5 but do not block it then there shouldn't be any problems. You can add a license plate bracket to the back of this carrier using # LP15SB but you would have to drilling into the carrier. Otherwise you could just zip tie the plate to the back of the carrier but you would have to cut it off every time you were finished and it is not as secure as an actual bracket.

  • Does CE Smith Tread Plate License Plate Mounting Bracket have Holes to Mount a Light
    I checked with CE Smith and license plate holder # CE26053A does not have the holes in it to mount a light. The picture in question is meant to show the tread plate construction. For a similar metal license plate mounting bracket that does have additional mounting holes go with # LP15SB.

  • Do Cargo Carriers Normally Obstruct Taillights and License Plates
    The Reese Carrier # 63155 that you referenced is 47 inches wide and should sit lower than the taillights of your vehicle (most likely). Mainly due to the width of this carrier it shouldn't interfere at all with the visibility of the taillights. You can measure the distance between your taillights to be certain. This carrier should sit lower and be too narrow to cause issue with that. Also, most likely the cameras that would take a picture of your license plate would be up above and the...

  • Angled License Plate Bracket Recommendation for a License Plate Collection Display
    I think a better option for you would be the Trailer License Plate Mount Bracket # LP15SB. This bracket has an offset that is pretty close to 90 degrees and since it is a metal bracket it can be bent to the desired angle if needed. You could also paint the bracket with spray paint if you wanted.

  • Troubleshooting Left Taillight Malfunction When Right Taillight is Working a 4-pole Wiring Harness
    There are several possibilities that an contribute to why you have one tail light working but not the other. The first diagnostic approach is to isolate the cause of the problem, it could be the vehicle or the trailer. Then once that is isolated you can proceed accordingly. The first step that I recommend is to check the connector on the vehicle. If the connector appears to be in good working order and is free of corrosion or road grime, then I would use a circuit tester like part # PTW2993...

  • License Plate Bracket for a 1992 Jayco Pop-up Trailer
    We may not have the exact same license plate bracket as the one you lost on your Jayco trailer. But we do have quite a few that you could likely use. Bracket # LP15SB is an excellent choice since it is metal and would be more durable and would not cause ground problems (if the tail light grounds through the mounting studs). It mounts on holes that are 2 inches apart on center. If you happen to need a hole spacing that is 1-3/4 inches apart then you could use # LP20SB. I have included...

  • Will Bike Rack Obscuring License Plate be a Legal Concern
    Typically a bike rack will not completely obscure a vehicle's rear plates, and in our customers' collective experience this has not been an issue for law enforcement. I suggest you contact the State Police or Highway Patrol in the states in which you will be travelling and simply ask them about this concern. In states that do not require a front plate, there may be greater sensitivity to the rear plate being obscured. You always have the option of relocating the plate if you prefer,...

  • Legality of Operating a Car With the Rear License Plate Blocked by a Bike Rack
    Typically a bike rack will not completely obscure a vehicle's rear plates, and in our customers' collective experience this has not been an issue for law enforcement. On the other hand, a fully-loaded cargo carrier WILL likely block a rear plate entirely and this might be an issue. I suggest you contact the State Police or Highway Patrol in the states in which you will be travelling and simply ask them about this concern. In states that do not require a front plate, there may be greater...

  • Zinc License Plate Bracket for Optronics LED Trailer Tail Light # STL9RB
    For a zinc plated license plate bracket that will work perfectly with the Optronics LED Trailer Tail Light # STL9RB you will just need the part # LP15SB. This bracket features mounting holes that are spaced apart by 2 inches, matching the studs on the Optronics Tail Light. I have attached a couple short video reviews that you can check out as well.

  • License Plate Location on Rola Enclosed Cargo Carrier
    That is an interesting issue. What I would do is use a secondary bracket for the plate, # LP15SB. You could secure it to the underside of the tray so when folded up you will have a bracket there. Or you could attach a bracket with a light, # LPL55CB, and splice the light into the same wire used for the light on your Rola carrier. A quick and dirty solution would be to bungee cord it to the carrier with some bungees like # EM06664 which is 19" . That may not be pretty but it would work.

  • Do You Have License Plate Brackets for Trailers
    Yes, we sell license plate brackets separately. There are several options including some with lighting for the plate. I would recommend the Trailer License Plate Mount Bracket, Heavy Duty Zinc Steel, item # LP15SB, if you just need a mounting bracket and if you need the light for the plate the Heavy-Duty, LED Trailer License-Plate Light w/ Mounting Bracket, item # LPL55CB would be a good choice.

  • License Plate Bracket Needed for Wesbar Trailer Lights
    We do have the Trailer License Plate Mount Bracket # LP15SB which was used when installing the Wesbar Submersible Lights # 403026 and # 403076 on a trailer. The mounting holes for the bracket are separated by 2" on center (see attached picture) which you can use to ensure that it fits your application. I have also linked the installation videos for the lights and bracket for you to check out.

  • Recommended Hitch Adapter To Use With Thule Bike Carrier And Provide Clearance For Taillights
    Using any adapters in the trailer hitch on your Rogue will reduce the hitch capacity by 50 percent. Since you are using your hitch for a bike carrier you may still be within the weight capacity of your hitch. If you have a 2-inch receiver opening I recommend an adapter like part # RM-076. This adapter offers a 6-inch rise or drop and may give you the needed clearance for your tail lights. We do not have an adapter with a rise or drop like this for a 1-1/4 inch receiver opening.

  • Does Optronics Heavy Duty Trailer License Plate Mount Bracket # LP15SB Include Hardware
    The Optronics Heavy Duty Trailer License Plate Mount Bracket # LP15SB does not include mounting hardware. You will need to re-use your existing hardware or choose new hardware. This plate mount is intended for full size license plates but you can check the included photo with dimensions to see if it will work to your satisfaction with a small plate.

  • Will Curt Aluminum Trailer Hitch Mount Cargo Carrier Fit 2007 Toyota Tacoma and Block License Plate
    First, to determine if the Curt cargo carrier # C18100 will fit your 2007 Toyota Tacoma you will need to take a measurement. Measure from the center of the hitch pin hole on the truck straight back to the distance required to clear the rear bumper. If that distance is less than 5 inches then the carrier will fit when folded up and down. When folded up the license plate will be blocked similarly to the way it blocks the plate on the Tundra in the video I have linked. You can relocate the...

  • Can the Trailer License Plate Mount Bracket, Heavy Duty Zinc Steel Be Flipped
    Yes, you can flip the orientation of the Trailer License Plate Mount Bracket, Heavy Duty Zinc Steel part # LP15SB so that the license plate sits above the tail lights and not below. That said, you'd be securing the plate using the lower set of holes with this method. I don't believe this would violate any laws or regulations but I also can't inform of this for every state so you will need to check with local officials if you have concerns of legality.

  • Stand Off Dimension of the Trailer License Plate Mount Bracket # LP10SB

The closest one we have with the 1-1/2 inches of stand off that you want is a metal one, part # LP15SB. This one has a 1-1/4 inch stand off dimension

  • Recommended Metal License Plate Bracket with Light
    For a metal license plate bracket with light, we have the Peterson License Plate Light with Bracket # PM436B. We have other options with lights but they are a polymer.
