license plate light assembly
« on: February 15, 2016 - 07:38:30 PM »


Does this looks right for a 70 challenger?  Also does it mount above or below the bumper mounting position?  And what type of fasteners are used on the ends?

It looks like the license plate bracket was welded on too high, because when it is mounted the light lens hits the top of the holder   :banghead:

looks right (I think).. it mounts above the bumper and I believe uses 2 cross top screws (I just put one in my Challenger)

Thanks, I guess my...trunk floor sheet metal? sticks out into the area between there and the bumper.  I won't be able to mount the damn thing above the bumper mounting spot without getting out a Dremel and attempting to cut.
