Default Brakelight and license relocation

Looking into doing these 2 mods soon. Would love to see pics if anyone got extra innovative with either. If you have pics please post. Like to see some homemade and kit recommendations! Thanks in advance.

Im just about to make this switch, I recently tore off my license bracket.

I don't have the kit that I ordered but there was a thread on it recently...

basically Northridge has package that is the mount to put on your tire carrier, it has the license plate holder, the second part is the third brake light with a quick disconnect for when you need to use the spare...

That kit was like $94 and there is a plug to fill the hole where the factory license plate mount goes, that was $19.

when it gets here I will be taking pictures and writing up the installation.

I got that kit from Northridge, if you have a sub woofer, it's a pain to take the sub out to wire it up nice, no complaints. But use the white wire with brown stripe under the black panel on the tail gate for the third brake light.

Thanks for the ideas guys. I'll take a look at north ridge for sure. How long was the install when taking out the sub?

not bad. three bolts hold it in. two on the bottom and one by the seatbelt on the roll bar. there is a plug on the top corner and run the wires down the rubber grommet. i used the blue splice things to splice in the wires
