Default Lic. Plate/ 3rd. brake lite relocation

I got a set of OR-Fab's rear quarter armor with the rear light led conversions. To install I have to remove the OEM license plate bracket and light, I want to move them to the tailgate. I know Poison Spyder, Or-Fab and several others make a plate (aka "Tramp Stamp") to do this but what do I do for a 3rd. brake light? I have no problem leaving the spare tire off because I hate the Warrior Products plate that goes thru the spare's hub and has a integrated brake lamp.

I cut off the rear brake light and installed it in the opening of the tail gate behind the tramp stamp, makes the eyes light up when I brake.

You can keep the factory brake light and just move the license plate if I understand you correctly.

Like this, for example.

That looks awesome. I'm not sure it meets the requirements of big brother for height and square inches, but it LOOKS awesome!

I know you hate it but I look hard to find something and the Warrior was the only real choice I could find 6 months ago. Went on easy and it's legal in CA so no risk of getting pulled over.

I was looking at this setup, anything about it that you don't like or is it a pretty decent product?

What's not to love? License plate and license plate light, 3rd brake light and even mounted backup camera to it. Pull a pin, pop a 4-pin flat connector and it's outta there.
