Is the Bulb Led ?

I bought a brake light from Truck-n-stuff here in El Cajon, CA, and a LED license plate from Custom Dynamics it was easy to wire myself using a 6 foot 16 gauge wire to route to the brake light, and the existing wires for the OEM license plate light.

A word of advice here...... put a little dab of red threadlock on the screw holding the cover on. :thumbup: I just lost my "replacement" and now I had to order another "replacement" because the screw came loose and fell out :banghead: nojoke

Loctite won't do the job...the screw merely goes into a metal bracket, so there aren't enough threads for Loctite to hold. Use a dab of RTV silicon before you install the lens. Let it cure overnight and you are in business. If you wish, a couple more dabs of silicone where the lens meets the base will hold the lens tightly even if the screw falls out. They can be easily slit with a razor blade for future access.

Use a dab of RTV silicon before you install the lens.

:agree: That's what I did. Unfortunately for me, this great product came out 2 years too late! :gaah:

Thanks Scotty, you just probably saved me losing another one. :thumbup:

Just received this today and noticed no screw was included and need a new one. Any ideas on what to get? Was in Lowes tonight and nothing seems to match.

Thanks

Lost my screw last week..............

AirMike, I found a 6/32 1/2" worked well for my '08 RS.
