Great product. Good flexibility. We use them for making golf carts street legal.

Great price, reasonable shipping charges and quick.

The purchase experience was excellent. This incandescent light solved the strobe effect I had with similar LED license plate lights. I attached it to my storage box to illuminate my duplicate license plate that I carry behind my RV on toe-hitch-rack. Since the storage box obscures my vehicle license plate, a duplicate plate is required by Ohio State law which must also be illuminated. The metal bracket is a bit thin and easily bent so be careful if anything leans up against it. Otherwise it works great!

Perfect fit easy to install

This illuminated license plate holder will work just fine. I will attach it onto the left side of the lift gate on my Caravan. This will require mounting with two self drilling screws, plus a hole for the light power source. I made a full size spare tire carrier that mounts into the class III trailer hitch receiver, so the stock license plate location is out of sight. (Yes, the carrier swings down by releasing a hitch pin so the lift gate may be opened.) I think I have the only Caravan with a continental kit!!
by: Dave02/05/2015
Have not installed it yet, but tested the light with a power supply and it works as advertised.
This part is a good value for the price.

Still working perfectly and holding up well. Survived a three day trip from the Midwest to the Southwest with no problems.
by: Shawn D.02/11/2020
These were installed on a box truck that had no side markers. They're extremely bright and make the turn signal quite obvious to drivers in other lanes that cannot see the rear lights. These were a major improvement in safety for our truck.
by: Ernie S.07/04/2014
excellent product seems to be durable and with withstand the obstacles encountered by license plates that generally bend and break the plastic and metal brackets. Easy to install with slight modifications to fit original mounting spot.

Screw holding the Plastic Light cover and the lens came out by breaking through the Gray Plastic cover. Lost lens so now looking to replace.

Easy to order. We were missing 1 light when order came but I called and the additional light was shipped right away. Great customer service.
by: Andy S.01/18/2011
Great product, Excellent Customer Service!I sent etrailer a few emails before I bought this item. My other bracket rusted out, and wanted something that wouldn't do the same. Couldn't go wrong with the price either, it's a little flimsy, but that stiffens up when you attach your license plate to it. Mounts easy & install is a breeze (just need your own hardware to attach it, there are no screws with the package). EXCELLENT Customer Service. At first my order was at a distribution facility and would ship within 48 hrs, but they expedited my order and it shipped the same day! Received it 2 days later. Also, their tracking system is state-of-the-art! It uses Google Maps to give you a visual of exactly where the shipment is.

Have ordered several Items from Etrailer with excellent results. Their knowledge, courtesy, pricing and shipping policy result in a very satisfied customer relationship

One year after installation, these lights are still going strong. The visibility of the brake/turn/tail lights is exponentially greater, especially at longer distances on the interstate and in the daytime.
by: Andrew G.02/24/2012
Several different members of the team kept me updated throughout the entire order process/progress. They even sent me a personal e-mail notification when the order made it to my door-step. This is by-far the best service I've experienced with an online purchase. This has been my second purchase with them, and I will be sure to continue to deal with them in the future for my needs. Great pricing, great selection, fast shipping-- couldn't ask for more!
by: Kurt R05/11/2011
I am very happy with the product and service I received. I was able to track the shipment online. It arrived within a few short days, was easy to install and works great. I will be sure to deal with etrailer.com for any relevant products that I may need in the future.
by: Captain Chuck06/05/2014
I found what I needed, the price was right, the S&H was fair. I got the trailer tag mount and put it on the trailer and am satisfied with the whole procedure and with etrailer.

ReliableFast reliable shipping, I like that you can track your item during shipping by just clicking a link on your confirmation email you send out. Product was new and clean. Thanks!
by: js02/10/2017
Good enough for the price, but the light housing is very delicate. If it's going to be in a protected area then no worries.
by: 04/20/2021
Product was delivered exactly as ordered. The order process was easy and the delivery was quick. Thanks etrailer!

Great price, friendly people to deal with when ordering. Just what I wanted for my trailer. I will absolutely use etrailer if I need additional items. Thanks for great service.

Fast delivery and product was exactly as advertised. Installation was a snap and electrical components were in great shape. Will use again in the future. Thanks
by: Earl F.05/16/2011
Very light weight, just right for mounting to the license plate itself. Can't beat the price.
by: Steve10/02/2018
I needed an inexpensive item and this is better than I thought. I needed this for an off-road race vehicle to make street legal. their shipping prices are a great deal very reasonable!

- Wiring Recommendation for 2017 Kia Soul to Power License Plate Light on Cargo CarrierYou'd want to first install trailer wiring on your 2017 Kia Soul so that you can have a circuit designed for the running lights that will power the # LP55CB. For that you'd need the part # 118637 which will give you a 4-way connector. Then for the wiring of the # LP55CB you'd need to wire the part # HM48110 to it. The white wire goes to the ground and the brown stripe wire runs to the power wire of the light. The rest of the wires would not be used.
view full answer... - Recommendation to Add Lighted Licence Plate Mount to Cargo Carrier Light Kit # 98174LED To add a lighted license plate mount to the LED Light Kit # 98174LED on your cargo carrier I recommend the Optronics # LP55CB. The bracket simply gets attached to the carrier with a couple of screws (not included) and the wiring harness can be tied into the wiring for the light kit so that it illuminates during travel. I have attached a short video demonstration that you can check out as well.
view full answer... - Can 3 Function LED Light STL79RB Be Used for Stop, Turn, and Tail Lights on Both Sides of TrailerYes, the # STL79RB 3-function LED would work for stop, turn signal, and tail light functions on your trailer if you installed one on each side. If you look at the back of the light, you will see three wires, as pictured. To install the lights, the white wire, equipped with a ring terminal, will be connected to a clean metal surface on the trailer frame, the black wire will be connected to the tail light circuit, and the red wire will connected to the brake and turn signal circuit. ...

- License Plate Mounting Bracket with Built-In LightWe do have a few different license plate brackets with built in lights that you could use. We have # PM436B, # LP55CB, or, if you want an LED light use # LPL55CB. I have linked some videos featuring these products to the right for you.
view full answer... - How to Wire a License Plate Bracket with a Light on a Dune BuggyLicense plate lights are typically wired to the running light circuit. You should have no problem wiring your plate light in with your existing tail lights. I recommend using solder, # FL0803484, and a soldering iron for these connections, but a quick splice, # SWC502905-1, will work if you do not have access to a soldering iron. A circuit tester, # 3808, will be needed to locate the running light circuit on the dune buggy. Typically it is easiest to find this circuit at the rear of the...
view full answer... - What License Plate Lights Are Available That Are WaterproofThe light on the Optronics License Plate Light # LP55CB is an incandescent light and it is not waterproof. I do have six license plate lights that are submersible (waterproof) and they are all incandescent lights. I am sending a link to the page that will show the six choices available.
view full answer... - Is there a License Plate Frame for Snap-In License Plate, Utility or Dash Light # LP11CBSnap-In License Plate, Utility or Dash Light # LP11CB, when used as a license plate light, fits into a 1-1/4 inch hole in a bumper; usually found on trucks with step bumpers. There isn't a license plate frame that has a 1-1/4 inch hole. The hole would have to be put into the frame if used on a trailer. Another option is to use a license plate frame with a built in light such as # LP55CB or # LPL55CB.
view full answer... - Is There a License Plate Bracket for the Thule T2 Pro XT Bike RackTo add a license plate bracket to any bike rack will require you to modify the bike rack. If you are willing to do that with the Thule T2 Pro XTR, # TH83JV, then your best bet would be a bracket with a light in the event that you are carrying your bikes at night. I recommend the Optronics License Plate Light w/ Mounting Bracket # LP55CB. To provide power to the light the easiest thing to do would be to install the T-One # 118467 which is a plug-in wiring harness (see attached installation...
view full answer... - Recommended License Plate Bracket & Padlock for Carpod Walled Folding Cargo Carrier M2205-01-02 For a license plate bracket for use on the Carpod Walled Folding Cargo Carrier # M2205-01-02 you can use a product like the Optronics # LP55CB which includes a light. You'll need to supply the hardware to install it. For a lock you can use a padlock that has a 3/8-inch or smaller shackle, such as # ML312D.
view full answer... - How To Install License Plate And Light Kit On The Pro Series Hitch Cargo Carrier # 63153 On the Pro Series Hitch Cargo Carrier, part # 63153, you can use the Optional Light Kit, part # 20174. This light kit will install on the Pro Series cargo carrier and plug into a 4-flat connector on your vehicle. This will give you operating taillights on the back of your cargo carrier. To mount your license plate on your vehicle and illuminate it I would recommend using either the Optronics License-Plate Light w/ Mounting Bracket, part # LP55CB, or the Peterson License Plate Light with...
view full answer... - Recommended License Plate Brackets For Hitch Mounted Cargo CarrierWe do have license plate brackets that can be mounted on a carrier. If you are looking for a bracket with an LED light I recommend part # LPL55CB. For a lighted bracket with a replaceable incandescent bulb I recommend part # LP55CB. To install either of these lights the black wire would need to tap into the running light circuit of your vehicle and the white wire would need to get grounded. The best way to wire this is to use a harness like part # HM48035. If you don't want to install...
view full answer... - Trailer License Plate Holder with Light for a Haulmark TrailerWe have license plate mounting brackets that have lights but there isn't a version of # LP35BB that has a light. We have # LPL55CB which has an LED light or # LP55CB with an incandescent bulb.
view full answer... - How to Install License Plate on Thule T2 Pro XTR Bike Rack for 2 BikesThere isn't a perfect spot on the Thule T2 Pro XTR Bike Rack for 2 Bikes part # TH83JV for the Optronics License Plate Light part # LP55CB. That's because they really aren't designed to be used with one another, it requires retrofitting. That said, from looking at the rack and plate holder, I would simply take some zip ties and secure it to the outermost crossbar. The other option which is probably a bit better, though does not have a light, is the Yakima PlateMate License Plate Holder...
view full answer... - Does the 24x60 Cargo Carrier, # 52018, have Pre-drilled Holes to Mount a License PlateSome carriers have predrilled holes and some don't. Adding a bracket will not be difficult. I recommend using the Gray-coated License-Plate Light with Mounting Bracket, # LP55CB. This brackets comes with a light you can wire to your vehicle to illuminate your plate. Just use a few self-tapping sheet metal screws to attach the bracket to one of the tubes on the cargo carrier and then attach your license plate.

The option I have for you is the Optronics License Plate Light w/ Mounting Bracket - Incandescent - Gray Housing - Clear Lens # LP55CB. The # LP55CB is a universal fit and will fit on your 2004 Nissan Armada.
view full answer... - Depth of Studs on License Plate LightThe Stud Mount Trailer License Plate Light with Steel License Plate Bracket, item # LP55CB, does not have studs protruding from the back of the light. This item is meant to be flush mounted with the two holes on each side of the lamp housing that are 3-1/2 on center. We do have one replacement License Plate Light, item # LP55CB, that has 3/4 inch long studs protruding from the back of the light housing. the studs are 1-3/4 inches on center. This item does not include the license plate bracket.

After a year now the product still works as well as the day I installed it. Again, the metal bracket could be made of thicker metal to make it more hardy. You have to be careful when working around the light not to bend it up. Otherwise its a great product.
